The Happy Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHFH

To teach the grey earth like a childA
To bid the heavens repentB
I only ask from Fate the giftC
Of one man well contentB
-
Him will I find though when in vainD
I search the feast and martE
The fading flowers of libertyF
The painted masks of artE
-
I only find him at the lastG
On one old hill where nodH
Golgotha's ghastly trinityF
Three persons and one godH
