The Viking's Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB CDCDCD

When I thy lover firstA
Shook out my canvas freeB
And like a pirate burstA
Into that dreaming seaB
The land knew no such thirstA
As then tormented meB
-
Now when at eve returnedC
I near that shore divineD
Where once but watch fires burnedC
I see thy beacon shineD
And know the land hath learnedC
Desire that welcomes mineD
