Found Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GEGE HBHB

Found as I rushed through the great world's martA
In a race for gold and a pleasure questB
A passionate throbbing human heartA
Suddenly found in my breastB
-
I had always laughed at the foolish wordC
I had said aloud in my boasting gleeD
That never a heart in my bosom stirredC
That my brain governed meD
-
I was proud with the sense of my might and powerE
'It is will not heart that wins ' I saidF
But I suddenly found one sad strange hourE
That the strength of my will had fledF
-
For up in my breast there rose supremeG
A strong man's heart and all on fireE
Drunk with the wine of a wild sweet dreamG
And tortured with desireE
-
It is tossed with hope and fear and doubtH
It is mad with the fever of love's unrestB
I wish to God I could pluck it outH
This heart I found in my breastB
