Recent Appearance Of A Lady Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCAB DECCDF GHCCGH IJCCIJ

The joy of meeting one so fairA
Inspires the present stream of songB
A bonny belleC
That few excelC
And one with whom I few compareA
Though out of sight so longB
-
It is a cause of much delightD
When lads and lasses meet againE
But bonny belleC
No long to dwellC
For soon upon the wing of flightD
We haste away in painF
-
That long hid form I smile to traceG
A star emerging out of gloomH
Exalted belleC
Whose powers impelC
And draw the heart by every graceG
The queen of every bloomH
-
Long out of sight but still in mindI
Eternal me'mry holds its graspJ
Still bonny belleC
'Tis sweet to tellC
Of thee when I am left behindI
In sorrow's lonely claspJ
