I Love But Thee Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABAA CDCDCA EFEFEA

If after all you still will doubt and fear meA
And think this heart to other loves will strayB
If I must swear then lovely doubter hear meA
By every dream I have when thou'rt awayB
By every throb I feel when thou art near meA
I love but thee I love but theeA
-
By those dark eyes where light is ever playingC
Where Love in depth of shadow holds his throneD
And by those lips which give whate'er thou'rt sayingC
Or grave or gay a music of its ownD
A music far beyond all minstrel's playingC
I love but thee I love but theeA
-
By that fair brow where Innocence reposesE
As pure as moonlight sleeping upon snowF
And by that cheek whose fleeting blush disclosesE
A hue too bright to bless this world belowF
And only fit to dwell on Eden's rosesE
I love but thee I love but theeA
