Death-watches Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF

The Spring spreads one green lap of flowersA
Which Autumn buries at the fallB
No chilling showers of Autumn hoursA
Can stay them or recallB
Winds sing a dirge while earth lays out of sightC
Her garment of delightC
-
The cloven East brings forth the sunD
The cloven West doth bury himE
What time his gorgeous race is runD
And all the world grows dimE
A funeral moon is lit in heaven's hollowF
And pale the star lights followF
