The Simple Toilers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD BEBEFGFG

JUST to do the little thingsA
And do them well from day to dayB
Enough of satisfaction bringsA
To those who tread the simple wayB
To make the striving here worth whileC
They do not ask for glories greatD
They're happy with the rank and fileC
And are content to work and waitD
-
They seek their homes at close of dayB
And there find happiness and restE
They watch their little children playB
And out of life they draw the bestE
All unafraid they view the sunF
Sink out of sight and night descendG
They miss the cares when day is doneF
The sleepless hours that fame attendG
