Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHH

I gazed upon thy face and beating lifeA
Once stilled its sleepless pulses in my breastB
And every thought whose being was a strifeA
Each in its silent chamber sank to restB
I was not save it were a thought of theeC
The world was but a spot where thou hadst trodD
From every star thy glance seemed fix on meC
Almost I loved thee better than my GodD
And still I gaze but tis a holier thoughtE
Than that in which my spirit lived beforeF
Each star a purer ray of love has caughtG
Earth wears a lovelier robe than then it woreF
And every lamp that burns around thy shrineH
I fed with fire whose fountain is DivineH
