Ideal Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBACA DEFEDF

Ah mystic child of Beauty nameless maidA
Dateless and fatherless how long agoB
A Greek with some rare sadness overweighedA
Shaped thee perchance and quite forgot his woeB
Or Raphael thy sweetness did bestowB
While magical his fingers o'er thee strayedA
Or that great pupil taught of VerrocchioC
Redeemed thy still perfection from the shadeA
-
That hides all fair things lost and things unbornD
Where one has fled from me that wore thy graceE
And that grave tenderness of thine awhileF
Nay still in dreams I see her but her faceE
Is pale is wasted with a touch of scornD
And only on thy lips I find her smileF
