In Clay Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DEFFGG HHBBII JJ

Here went a horse with heavy laboring strideA
Along the woodland sideA
Deep in the clay his iron hoof marks showB
Patient and slowB
Where with his human burden yesterdayC
He passed this wayC
-
Would that this wind that tramples 'round me hereD
Among the sad and sereE
Of winter weary forests were a steedF
Mighty indeedF
And tameless as the tempest of its paceG
Upon whom man might placeG
-
The boundless burden of his mortal caresH
Life's griefs despairsH
And ruined dreams that bow the spirit soB
And let him goB
Bearing them far from the sad world ah meI
Leaving it freeI
-
As in that Age of Gold of which men tellJ
When Earth was glad and gods came here to dwellJ
