Not A Word Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCB DEDEFFE AEAEEEE

Love my heart is faint with waitingA
Faint with hope and joy deferredB
All night long at this sad gratingA
Sleepless like a prisoned birdB
Singing lowC
Singing slowC
Come ah come love Not a wordB
-
Love in vain for thee this tokenD
Did I tie poor silken cordE
To my window See 'tis brokenD
And the strands fly heavenwardE
All are freeF
All but meF
Come ah come love Not a wordE
-
Lo the first sad streak of morningA
Cleaves the heaven like a swordE
Love too late I hear the warningA
Of thy footstep on the swardE
Yet ah yetE
Though 'tis lateE
Come but mind love not a wordE
