On The Field Of Waterloo Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADAAAAD

So then the name which travels side by sideA
With English life from childhood WaterlooB
Means this The sun is setting Their strife grewB
Till the sunset and ended says our guideA
It lacked the chord by stage use sanctifiedA
Yet I believe one should have thrilled For meC
I grinned not and 'twas something certainlyC
These held their point and did not turn but diedA
So much is very well Under each spanD
Of these ploughed fields 'tis the guide still there rotA
Three nations' slain a thousand thousandfoldA
Am I to weep Good sirs the earth is oldA
Of the whole earth there is no single spotA
But hath among its dust the dust of manD
