A Southern Girl Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB CDCDCD EFEFEF

Serious but smiling stately and sereneA
And dreamier than a flowerB
A girl in whom all sympathies conveneA
As perfumes in a bowerB
Through whom one feels what soul and heart may meanA
And their resistless powerB
-
Eyes that commune with the frank skies of truthC
Where thought like starlight curlsD
Lips of immortal rose where love and youthC
Nestle like two sweet pearlsD
Hair that suggests the Bible braids of RUTHC
Deeper than any girl'sD
-
When first I saw you 't was as if withinE
My soul took shape some songF
Played by a master of the violinE
A music pure and strongF
That rapt my soul above all earthly sinE
To heights that know no wrongF
