Roundel Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BAB ABAB

She's passing fair but so demure is sheA
So quiet is her gown so smooth her hairB
That few there are who note her and agreeA
She's passing fairB
-
Yet when was ever beauty held more rareB
Than simple heart and maiden modestyA
What fostered charms with virtue could compareB
-
Alas no lover ever stops to seeA
The best that she is offered is the airB
Yet if the passing mark is minus DA
She's passing fairB
