Another For The Briar-rose Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB BBCD CDEE EEFF

O treacherous scent O thorny sightA
O tangle of world s wrong and rightA
What art thou gainst my armour s gleamB
But dusky cobwebs of a dreamB
-
Beat down deep sunk from every gleamB
Of hope they lie and dully dreamB
Men once but men no more that LoveC
Their waste defeated hearts should moveD
-
Here sleeps the world that would not loveC
Let it sleep on but if He moveD
Their hearts in humble wise to waitE
On his new wakened fair estateE
-
O won at last is never lateE
Thy silence was the voice of fateE
Thy still hands conquered in the strifeF
Thine eyes were light thy lips were lifeF
