Yearnings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH DJKJ

I long for diviner regionsA
The spirit would reach its goalB
Though this world hath surpassing beautyC
It warreth against the soulB
-
There's a cloud in the eastern heavenD
Beyond it a cold gray skyE
But I know that the sun's rare radianceF
Will brighten it by and byE
-
In the fane of my soul is glowingG
The joy of a hope to comeH
That will touch with its Memnon fingerI
The lips that are cold and dumbH
-
Till illumed by the smile of heavenD
And blest with a purer lifeJ
Will the gloom that o'ershades my spiritK
Depart like a vanquished strifeJ
