I Live, I Die, I Burn, I Drown Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH DDI JKI

I live I die I burn I drownA
I endure at once chill and coldB
Life is at once too soft and too hardC
I have sore troubles mingled with joysD
-
Suddenly I laugh and at the same time cryE
And in pleasure many a grief endureF
My happiness wanes and yet it lasts unchangedG
All at once I dry up and grow greenH
-
Thus I suffer love's inconstanciesD
And when I think the pain is most intenseD
Without thinking it is gone againI
-
Then when I feel my joys certainJ
And my hour of greatest delight arrivedK
I find my pain beginning all over once againI
