Religious Isolation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEDFGG

Children as such forgive them have I knownA
Ever in their own eager pastime bentB
To make the incurious bystander intentB
On his own swarming thoughts an interest ownA
Too fearful or too fond to play aloneA
Do thou whom light in thine own inmost soulC
Not less thy boast illuminates controlC
Wishes unworthy of a man full grownA
What though the holy secret which moulds theeD
Moulds not the solid Earth though never WindsE
Have whisper'd it to the complaining SeaD
Nature's great law and law of all men's mindsF
To its own impulse every creature stirsG
Live by thy light and Earth will live by hersG
