Love's Reality Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGHGH

I walk I trust with open eyesA
I've travelled half my worldly courseB
And in the way behind me liesA
Much vanity and some remorseB
I've lived to feel how pride may partC
Spirits tho' matched like hand and gloveD
I've blushed for love's abode the heartC
But have not disbelieved in loveD
Nor unto love sole mortal thingE
Or worth immortal done the wrongF
To count it with the rest that singE
Unworthy of a serious songF
And love is my reward for nowG
When most of dead'ning time complainH
The myrtle blooms upon my browG
Its odour quickens all my brainH
