Tell Summer That I Died Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBC DEEDDCFC

When he was old and thinA
And knew not night or dayB
He would sit up to sayB
Something of the fire withinA
How woefully his chinA
Moved so slowly as he triedC
Some lusty word to sayB
Tell Summer that I diedC
-
When gladness sweeps the landD
And to the white skyE
Cool butterflies go byE
And sheep in shadow standD
When Love the old commandD
Turns every hate asideC
In the unstinted daysF
Tell Summer that I diedC
