My Voice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DAEA CFCF

Within this restless hurried modern worldA
We took our hearts' full pleasure You and IB
And now the white sails of our ship are furledA
And spent the lading of our argosyC
-
Wherefore my cheeks before their time are wanD
For very weeping is my gladness fledA
Sorrow has paled my young mouth's vermilionE
And Ruin draws the curtains of my bedA
-
But all this crowded life has been to theeC
No more than lyre or lute or subtle spellF
Of viols or the music of the seaC
That sleeps a mimic echo in the shellF
