Late Wisdom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFGEHEH

We've trod the maze of error roundA
Long wandering in the winding gladeB
And now the torch of truth is foundA
It only shows us where we strayedB
By long experience taught we knowC
Can rightly judge of friends and foesD
Can all the worth of these allowE
And all the faults discern in thoseD
-
Now 'tis our boast that we can quellF
The wildest passions in their rageG
Can their destructive force repelF
And their impetuous wrath assuageG
Ah Virtue dost thou arm when nowE
This bold rebellious race are fledH
When all these tyrants rest and thouE
Art warring with the mighty deadH
