To A Silent Girl Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEED FGGF HH

When the sklll'd fashioner of female facesA
Designed your mask he wrought with cunning fistB
And made a mouth expressly to be kiss'dB
Not for shrill utterance nor pert grimacesC
-
The curved ripe lips above the rounded chinD
He dyed the hue of summer's reddest roseE
Then placed a smile upon them to discloseE
A glimpse of white and even pearls withinD
-
Those lips are silent sweetheart but your eyesF
Are eloquent and they love's lesson teachG
Better than other woman's aptest speechG
In their soft light the tend'rest language liesF
-
In womankind the world has long confess'dH
A silent mouth and speaking eyes are bestH
