Pandora (for A Picture) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEEF

WHAT of the end Pandora Was it thineA
The deed that set these fiery pinions freeB
Ah wherefore did the Olympian consistoryB
In its own likeness make thee half divineA
Was it that Juno's brow might stand a signA
For ever and the mien of Pallas beB
A deadly thing and that all men might seeB
In Venus' eyes the gaze of ProserpineA
What of the end These beat their wings at willC
The ill born things the good things turned to illC
Powers of the impassioned hours prohibitedD
Aye clench the casket now Whither they goE
Thou mayst not dare to think nor canst thou knowE
If Hope still pent there be alive or deadF
