The Dead Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACBDEDEFFGHGIH

These there were who lost their everythingA
Gave all And left the earth a vaster sphereB
In memories a song or two to singA
Some takes to tell some thoughts to thinkC
more nearB
To humanness by death and blood of deathD
Than life itself which in the passing henceE
Enriched the world with an awakened breathD
And fled no longer nameless form the senseE
Twas not the shed of blood but fearless mirthF
that set a wondrous pattern to the earthF
And these within a corner that is theirsG
Are laid in smiling peace a rich contentH
The pain has been the glory is Old caresG
Have dropped and left no drooping wonderI
mentH
