Forgotten Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFFGHG IGJK ILMM

There is a wordA
Which bears a swordB
Can pierce an armed manC
It hurls its barbed syllablesD
At once is mute againE
But where it fellF
The saved will tellF
On patriotic dayG
Some epauletted brotherH
Gave his breath awayG
-
Wherever runs the breathless sunI
Wherever roams the dayG
There is its noiseless onsetJ
There is its victoryK
-
Behold the keenest marksmanI
The most accomplished shotL
Time's sublimest targetM
Is a soul 'forgot'M
