The Vow Forsworn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH

Unweariedly he watches for the signA
The sign I promised from the farthest goalB
My lover of a world no longer mineA
My human lover with his human soulB
-
Unweariedly he waits from day to dayC
Nor knows as I know now that when we meetD
'Twill be as dewdrop on the hawthorn sprayC
The ultimate of God at last completeD
-
He still remembers that my eyes were blueE
Still dreams the autumn russet of my hairF
In God's own time he said I'll come to youE
You will be waiting I will find you thereF
-
But now I know that he must never hearG
The message that I promised to impartH
For should I breathe the secret in his earG
His soul would hearken but 'twould break his heartH
