Among The Tombs Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABABB CBCBCBB

She is a lady fair and wiseA
Her heart her counsel keepsB
And well she knows of time that fliesA
And tide that onward sweepsB
But still she sits with restless eyesA
Where Memory sleepsB
Where Memory sleepsB
-
Ye that have heard the whispering deadC
In every wind that creepsB
Or felt the stir that strains the leadC
Beneath the mounded heapsB
Tread softly ah more softly treadC
Where Memory sleepsB
Where Memory sleepsB
