Love's Infinity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHH

Dear lowly flower that liftest upA
Among the grass thy golden cupA
I take thee from thy earthly bedB
And plant thee in my heart insteadB
Ye ocean waves that mount on highC
As emulous of the lofty skyC
'Tis in my breast ye onward sweepD
Which as the sea is wide and deepD
Great sun from thy supernal heightE
On flower and wave who pourest lightE
My soul doth clasp thee in the skiesF
And thou in me dost set and riseF
O thou I love thy lips of fireG
Have waked an infinite desireG
And unto all things as to theeH
Flames out the love that burns in meH
