Sonnet. About Jesus. Iii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDEDEBB

Some men I have beheld with wondermentA
Noble in form and feature God's designB
In whom the thought must search as in a mineB
For that live soul of theirs by which they wentC
Thus walking on the earth And I have bentC
Frequent regard on women who gave signB
That God willed Beauty when He drew the lineB
That shaped each float and fold of Beauty's tentC
But the soul drawing up in little spaceD
Thus left the form all staring self dismayedE
A vacant sign of what might be the graceD
If mind swelled up and filled the plan displayedE
Each curve and shade of thy pure form were ThineB
Thy very hair replete with the divineB
