Discovery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBA DDEEFF

We told of him as one who should have soaredA
And seen for us the devastating lightB
Whereof there is not either day or nightB
And shared with us the glamour of the WordC
That fell once upon Amos to recordA
For men at ease in Zion when the sightB
Of ills obscured aggrieved him and the mightB
Of Hamath was a warning of the LordA
-
Assured somehow that he would make us wiseD
Our pleasure was to wait and our surpriseD
Was hard when we confessed the dry returnE
Of his regret For we were still to learnE
That earth has not a school where we may goF
For wisdom or for more than we may knowF
