PLS HELP ME ASAP!!!!!

The poem below describes an artist who idealizes his subjects - meaning he paints them as he would like to remember them, not as how they are in real life. The poem is a Petrarchan sonnet, which would normally follow the rhyme scheme noted at the left. How does the poem's break in this rhyme scheme in its final line help provide greater meaning in the poem?

a One face looks out from all his canvases,
b One selfsame figure sits or walks or leans:
b We found her hidden just behind those screens,
a That mirror gave back all her loveliness.
a A queen in opal or in ruby dress,
b nameless girl in freshest summer-greens,
b saint, an angel; -every canvass means

a The same one meaning, neither more nor less.
c He feeds upon her face by day and night,
d And she with true kind eyes looks back on him,
c Fair as the moon and joyful as the light: d Not wan with waiting, not with sorrow dim;
c Not as she is, but was when hope shone bright
d Not as she is, but as she fills his dream.

Explanation:

the break in rhymes scheme show that the last line is most important to the poet. he mad Ethel last line the only line to rhyme with only one other line. the poet mat also have wanted this line to stand out to the reader, seeming that this is the whole summary of the poem, and he, the poet, wants the readers attention there.
