Perplexed Music Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDBEAFB

EXPERIENCE like a pale musician holdsA
A dulcimer of patience in his handB
Whence harmonies we cannot understandB
Of God will in his worlds the strain unfoldsA
In sad perplexed minors deathly coldsA
Fall on us while we hear and countermandB
Our sanguine heart back from the fancylandB
With nightingales in visionary woldsA
We murmur ' Where is any certain tuneC
Or measured music in such notes as these 'D
But angels leaning from the golden seatB
Are not so minded their fine ear hath wonE
The issue of completed cadencesA
And smiling down the stars they whisperF
SWEETB
