The Jongleur Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACADCAD

Last night I lay awake and heard the windA
That madman jongleur of the world of airB
Making wild music now he seemed to fareB
With harp and lute so intimately twinnedA
They were as one now on a drum he dinnedA
Now on a tabor now with blow and blareB
Of sackbut and recorder everywhereB
Shattered the night then on a sudden thinnedA
To bagpipe wailings as of maniac griefC
That whined itself to sleep And then meseemedA
Out in the darkness medi val dimD
I saw him dancing like an autumn leafC
In tattered tunic while around him streamedA
His lute's wild ribbons 'thwart the moon's low rimD
