Death (ii) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDDC

Yes there is one who makes us all lay downA
Our mushroom vanities our speculationsB
Our well set theories and calculationsB
Our workman's jacket or our monarch's crownA
To him alike the country and the townA
Barbaric hordes or civilized nationsB
Men of all names and ranks and occupationsB
Squire parson lawyer Jones or Smith or BrownA
He stops the carter the uplifted whipC
Falls dreamily among the horses' strawD
He stops the helmsman and the gallant shipC
Holdeth to westward by another lawD
No one will see him no one ever sawD
But he sees all and lets not any slipC
