Heart's-ease Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBBB CDDCDC

As opiates to the sick on wakeful nightsA
As light to flowers as flowers in poor men's roomsB
As to the fisher when the tempest gloomsB
The cheerful twinkling of his village lightsB
As emerald isles to flagging swallow flightsB
As roses garlanding with tendrilled bloomsB
The unweeded hillocks of forgotten tombsB
As singing birds on cypress shadowed heightsB
-
Thou art to me a comfort past compareC
For thy joy kindling presence sweet as MayD
Sets all my nerves to music makes awayD
With sorrow and the numbing frost of careC
Until the influence of thine eyes' bright swayD
Has made life's glass go up from foul to fairC
