In The Depths Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF

It is not sweet content be sureA
That moves the nobler Muse to songB
Yet when could truth come whole and pureA
From hearts that inly writhe with wrongB
-
'T is not the calm and peaceful breastC
That sees or reads the problem trueD
They only know on whom 't has prestC
Too hard to hope to solve it tooD
-
Our ills are worse than at their easeE
These blameless happy souls suspectF
They only study the diseaseE
Alas who live not to detectF
