Shepherd Turned Sailor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB EFGGHI

Now Christ ye save yon bonny shepherdA
Sailing on the seaB
Ten thousand souls are sailing thereC
But they belong to TheeB
If he is lost then all is lostD
And all is dead to meB
-
My love should have a grey head stoneeE
And green moss at his feetF
And clinging grass above his breastG
Whereon his lambs could bleatG
And I should know the span of earthH
Where some day I might sleepI
