Adequacy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBABCDCBC

NOW by the verdure on thy thousand hillsA
Beloved England doth the earth appearB
Quite good enough for men to overbearB
The will of God in with rebellious willsA
We cannot say the morning sun fulfilsA
Ingloriously its course nor that the clearB
Strong stars without significance insphereB
Our habitation we meantime our illsA
Heap up against this good and lift a cryB
Against this work day world this ill spread feastC
As if ourselves were better certainlyD
Than what we come to Maker and High PriestC
I ask thee not my joys to multiplyB
Only to make me worthier of the leastC
