Unknown Fair Faces Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFFDE

Though I am faithful to my loves lived throughA
And place them among Memory's great starsB
Where burns a face like Hesper one like MarsB
Of visages I get a moment's viewA
Sweet eyes that in the heaven of me tooA
Ascend tho' virgin to my life they passedC
Lo these within my destiny seem glassedC
At times so bright I wish that Hope were newA
A gracious freckled lady tall and graveD
Went in a shawl voluminous and whiteE
Last sunset by and going sow'd a glanceF
Earth is too poor to hold a second chanceF
I will not ask for more than Fortune gaveD
My heart she goes from never from my sightE
