For Old Sake's Sake! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBC AABD AABBAD EFF

For old sake's sake 'Twere hard to chooseA
Words fitter for an old world MuseA
Than these that in their cadence bringB
Faint fragrance of the posy ringB
And charms that rustic lovers useC
-
The long day lengthens and we loseA
The first pale flush the morning huesA
Ah but the back look lingeringB
For old sake's sakeD
-
That we retain Though Time refuseA
To lift the veil on forward viewsA
Despot in most he is not KingB
Of those kind memories that clingB
Around his travelled avenuesA
For old sake's sakeD

Qui n'a pas l'esprit de son geE
De son ge a tout le malheurF
