Warning And Reply Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DBD EBEF FBF GBGB DBDB

In the earth the earth thou shalt be laidA
A grey stone standing over theeB
Black mould beneath thee spreadC
And black mould to cover theeB
-
'Well there is rest thereD
So fast come thy prophecyB
The time when my sunny hairD
Shall with grass roots entwined be '-
-
But cold cold is that resting placeE
Shut out from joy and libertyB
And all who loved thy living faceE
Will shrink from it shudderinglyF
-
'Not so Here the world is chillF
And sworn friends fall from meB
But there they will own me stillF
And prize my memory '-
-
Farewell then all that loveG
All that deep sympathyB
Sleep on Heaven laughs aboveG
Earth never misses theeB
-
Turf sod and tombstone drearD
Part human companyB
One heart breaks only hereD
But that heart was worthy theeB
