Hornets Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AB CD EE FE EG

How strangely like a churchyard skullA
The thing that's there amongst the leavesB
-
A Hornets' nest but stir the branchC
And they'll be round your head and earsD
-
So wary ana so weaponedE
How do they not possess the woldE
-
Their lives a watch their act a doomF
Of their own terrors they must dieE
-
Livid uneyed articulateE
How like a skull their nest they makeG
