Two Rooms Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ACAC DEDE DEDE FGFH

One room is full of luxury and dimA
With that soft moonlit radiance of lightB
That she best loves who sits and dreams of himA
Her heart has crowned as knightB
-
And one is bare and comfortless and dimA
With that strange fitful glimmer that is shedC
By candles casting shadows weird and grimA
Above the sheeted deadC
-
In one a round and beautiful young faceD
Is full of wordless rapture and so fairE
You know her breast is joy's best dwelling placeD
You know sweet love is thereE
-
In one there lies a white and wasted faceD
Whereon is frozen such supreme despairE
You need but look to know what left the traceD
You know love has been thereE
-
To one he comes She leans her head of goldF
Upon his breast and bids him no more roamG
Ah God Ah God and one lies stark and coldF
Because he ceased to comeH
