Flower-de-luce: To-morrow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDCCD

'Tis late at night and in the realm of sleepA
My little lambs are folded like the flocksB
From room to room I hear the wakeful clocksB
Challenge the passing hour like guards that keepA
Their solitary watch on tower and steepA
Far off I hear the crowing of the cocksB
And through the opening door that time unlocksB
Feel the fresh breathing of To morrow creepA
To morrow the mysterious unknown guestC
Who cries to me 'Remember BarmecideC
And tremble to be happy with the rest 'D
And I make answer 'I am satisfiedC
I dare not ask I know not what is bestC
God hath already said what shall betide 'D
