Sweet Springtime Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDEFE GHHIJEEJAA

It was in the primeA
Of the sweet springtimeA
In the linnet's throatB
Trembled the love noteB
And the love stirred airC
Thrilled the blossoms thereC
Little shadows dancedD
Each a tiny elfE
Happy in large lightF
And the thinnest selfE
-
It was but a minuteG
In a far off springH
But each gentle thingH
Sweetly wooing linnetI
Soft thrilled hawthorn treeJ
Happy shadowy elfE
With the thinnest selfE
Live on still in meJ
It was in the primeA
Of the past springtimeA
