Serenade Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH

Hide happy damask from the starsA
What sleep enfolds behind your veilB
But open to the fairy carsA
On which the dreams of midnight sailB
And let the zephyrs rise and fallC
About her in the curtained gloomD
And then return to tell me allC
The silken secrets of the roomD
-
Ah dearest may the elves that swayE
Thy fancies come from emerald plotsF
Where they have dozed and dreamed all dayE
In hearts of blue forget me notsF
And one perhaps shall whisper thusG
Awake and light the darkness SweetH
While thou art reveling with usG
He watches in the lonely streetH
