"Though chidden of God"- verb, to be told off, suggests God was annoyed as the sun was too bright in a bleak time so stripped the sun of its colour and warmth suggesting the relationship has also been stripped of these things
"Your eyes on me were as eyes that rove"- the eyes are thought to be the window to the soul suggesting th light has gone out and there is no longer any emotion felt by the other person. The repetition emphasises this.
"The smile on her mouth was the deadest thing"- the superlative combined with 'smile' is an oxymoron. A smile normally indicates happiness however this smile is dead and contains no love, instead it is almost sarcastic.
