The Hemlock Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGC HIJK HLMN

I think the hemlock likes to standA
Upon a marge of snowB
It suits his own austerityC
And satisfies an aweD
-
That men must slake in wildernessE
Or in the desert cloyF
An instinct for the hoar the baldG
Lapland's necessityC
-
The hemlock's nature thrives on coldH
The gnash of northern windsI
Is sweetest nutriment to himJ
His best Norwegian winesK
-
To satin races he is noughtH
But children on the DonL
Beneath his tabernacles playM
And Dnieper wrestlers runN
