The Tree Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDEEFGAAB

I stood still and was a tree amid the woodA
Knowing the truth of things unseen beforeB
Of Daphne and the laurel bowC
And that god feasting couple oldD
that grew elm oak amid the woldD
'Twas not until the gods had beenE
Kindly entreated and been brought withinE
Unto the hearth of their heart's homeF
That they might do this wonder thingG
Nathless I have been a tree amid the woodA
And many a new thing understoodA
That was rank folly to my head beforeB
