A Night-rain In Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD BBEEFFGG

Open the window and let the airA
Freshly blow upon face and hairA
And fill the room as it fills the nightB
With the breath of the rain's sweet mightB
Hark the burthen swift and proneC
And how the odorous limes are blownC
Stormy Love's abroad and keepsD
Hopeful coil for gentle sleepsD
-
Not a blink shall burn to nightB
In my chamber of sordid lightB
Nought will I have not a window paneE
'Twixt me and the air and the great good rainE
Which ever shall sing me sharp lullabiesF
And God's own darkness shall close mine eyesF
And I will sleep with all things blestG
In the pure earth shadow of natural restG
