Sister Saint Luke Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBBBAABA

She lived shut in by flowers and treesA
And shade of gentle bigotriesA
On this side lay the trackless seaA
On that the great world's mysteryA
But all unseen and all unguessedB
They could not break upon her restB
The world's far splendors gleamed and flashedB
Afar the wild seas foamed and dashedB
But in her small dull ParadiseA
Safe housed from rapture or surpriseA
Nor day nor night had power to frightB
The peace of God that filled her eyesA
