Henry James Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGG

Who comes to night We open the doors in vainA
Who comes My bursting walls can you containA
The presences that now together throngB
Your narrow entry as with flowers and songB
As with the air of life the breath of talkC
Lo how these fair immaculate women walkC
Behind their jocund maker and we seeD
Slighted De Mauves and that far different sheD
Gressie the trivial sphynx and to our feastE
Daisy and Barb and Chancellor she not leastE
With all their silken all their airy kinF
Do like unbidden angels enter inF
But he attended by these shining namesG
Comes best of all himself our welcome JamesG
