Eternal Time, That Wastest Without Waste Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEFEBB GHGHIJ

Eternal Time that wastest without wasteA
That art and art not diest and livest stillB
Most slow of all and yet of greatest hasteA
Both ill and good and neither good nor illB
How can I justly praise thee or dispraiseC
Dark are thy nights but bright and clear thy daysC
-
Both free and scarce thou giv'st and tak'st againD
Thy womb that all doth breed is tomb to allE
What so by thee hath life by thee is slainF
From thee do all things rise by thee they fallE
Constant inconstant moving standing stillB
Was Is Shall be do thee both breed and killB
-
I lose thee while I seek to find thee outG
The farther off the more I follow theeH
The faster hold the greater cause of doubtG
Was Is I know but Shall I cannot seeH
All things by thee are measur'd thou by noneI
All are in thee thou in thyself aloneJ
