Once, And Once Only, Have I Seen Thy Face, Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI

Once and once only have I seen thy faceA
Elia once only has thy tripping tongueB
Run o'er my breast yet never has been leftC
Impression on it stronger or more sweetD
Cordial old man what youth was in thy yearsE
What wisdom in thy levity what truthF
In every utterance of that purest soulG
Few are the spirits of the glorifiedH
I'd spring to earlier at the gate of HeavenI
