Insufficiency Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD

When I attain to utter forth in verseA
Some inward thought my soul throbs audiblyB
Along my pulses yearning to be freeB
And something farther fuller higher rehearseA
To the individual true and the universeA
In consummation of right harmonyB
But like a wind exposed distorted treeB
We are blown against for ever by the curseA
Which breathes through Nature Oh the world is weakC
The effluence of each is false to allD
And what we best conceive we fail to speakC
Wait soul until thine ashen garments fallD
And then resume thy broken strains and seekC
Fit peroration without let or thrallD
