The Angel And The Clown Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAABCCCB DDDBEEEB FFFBGGGB

I saw wild domes and bowersA
And smoking incense towersA
And mad exotic flowersA
In IllinoisB
Where ragged ditches ranC
Now springs of Heaven beganC
Celestial drink for manC
In IllinoisB
-
There stood beside the townD
Beneath its incense crownD
An angel and a clownD
In IllinoisB
He was as Clowns areE
She was snow and starE
With eyes that looked afarE
In IllinoisB
-
I asked How came this placeF
Of antique Asian graceF
Amid our callow raceF
In IllinoisB
Said Clown and Angel fairG
By laughter and by prayerG
By casting off all careG
In IllinoisB
