The Mushroom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE EGBH BBIB JIBK

The mushroom is the elf of plantsA
At evening it is notB
At morning in a truffled hutC
It stops upon a spotB
-
As if it tarried alwaysD
And yet its whole careerE
Is shorter than a snake's delayF
And fleeter than a tareE
-
'T is vegetation's jugglerE
The germ of alibiG
Doth like a bubble antedateB
And like a bubble hieH
-
I feel as if the grass were pleasedB
To have it intermitB
The surreptitious scionI
Of summer's circumspectB
-
Had nature any outcast faceJ
Could she a son contemnI
Had nature an IscariotB
That mushroom it is himK
