Art Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABA CAAD

For Gladstone's portrait five thousand poundsA
Were paid 't is said to Sir John MillaisA
I cannot help thinking that such fine payB
Transcended reason's uttermost boundsA
-
For it seems to me uncommonly queerC
That a painted British stateman's priceA
Exceeds the established value thriceA
Of a living statesman over hereD
