The Peace Of God Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDE

The seeking souls by baleful fires made blindA
Torn by entrapping brambles thirsty and madB
Hear on the lonely waste the stealthy padB
And half held breath of glaring beasts behindA
Then soft hands lead them where the weary findA
A refuge from thought's hunting and are gladB
Why to their certain misery should they addB
They rest secure to freedom's loss resignedA
-
So in the bitter years when love and ageC
Sneered at the youth whose sturdy heart withheldD
His hand from slaughter till in desperate plightE
He flung into the trampling equipageC
I have heard him mutter as the music swelledD
The peace of God is on me They were rightE
