Virginal Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBABA ACCACA ADDADA

I LOVE him soA
That though his face I ne er might seeB
In the assurance that he so loved meB
This heart of mine would glowA
With pulses sweeter than the sweetest beB
That colder ones can knowA
-
I love him soA
That to my thought twere sweet to sleepC
Even in death believing he would keepC
With solemn step and slowA
In Sabbath memory my grave and weepC
For her who slept belowA
-
I love him soA
That all desires when he is byD
Shrink even from the import of a sighD
As flowers unseen that growA
Being mute must so remain as in the skyD
Are stars that none may knowA
