Dora Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD AAEE FGHH

It was I well remember the merry springtime whenA
Young Dora in the eventide came singing up the glenA
And the song came up the glen till one oft repeated partB
In a subtle stream of melody ran glowing through my heartB
A fond desire long cherished till then I might controlC
Till then but oh That witching strain swift drew it from my soulC
Swift drew it from my soul and she did not say me nayD
And the world of love was all the world to us that happy dayD
-
I m happy now in thinking how happy I was thenA
When towards the glowing west my love went homeward down the glenA
Went homeward down the glen while my comfort surer grewE
Till methought the old faced hills at looked as they were happy tooE
-
All happy for that Dora and I so happy wereF
All happy for that human love had breathed its spirit thereG
Had breathed its spirit there and had made them conscious growH
Of the part they bore in that sweet time that happy long agoH
