Wonder Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HIJI IKLK MNON IPQP

Following upon the faint wind's fickle coursesA
A feather drifts and straysB
My thought after her thoughtC
Floated how many ways and daysB
-
She swayed me as the wind swayeth a featherD
I was a leaf uponE
Her breath a dream withinF
Her dream The dream how soon was doneG
-
For now all's changed not Time's change more wondrousH
I am her sun and sheI
Herself doth swear the moonJ
Or she the ship upon my seaI
-
How should this be I know not I so grosslyI
Mastering her spirit pureK
O how can her bird's breastL
My nervous and harsh hand endureK
-
Tell me if this be love indeed fond loversM
That high stoop to lowN
Soul be to flesh subduedO
That the sun around the earth should goN
-
I know not I but know that love is miseryI
O'erfilled with delightP
Day follows night her loveQ
Is gay as day yet strange as nightP
