How Much Of Godhood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHIH

How much of Godhood did it takeA
What purging epochs had to passB
Ere I was fit for leaf and lakeA
And worthy of the patient grassB
-
What mighty travails must have beenC
What ages must have moulded meD
Ere I was raised and made akinC
To dawn the daisy and the seaD
-
In what great struggles was I felledE
In what old lives I labored longF
Ere I was given a world that heldE
A meadow butterflies and SongF
-
But oh what cleansings and what fearsG
What countless raisings from the deadH
Ere I could see Her touched with tearsI
Pillow the little weary headH
