Equipment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDB BEEFFGG HIJJ

With what thou gavest me O MasterA
I have wroughtB
Such chances such abilitiesC
To see the end was not for my poor eyesD
Thine was the impulse thine the forming thoughtB
-
Ah I have wroughtB
And these sad hands have right to tell their storyE
It was no hard up striving after gloryE
Catching and losing gaining and failingF
Raging me back at the world's raucous railingF
Simply and humbly from stone and from woodG
Wrought I the things that to thee might seem goodG
-
If they are little ah God but the costH
Who but thou knowest the all that is lostI
If they are few is the workmanship trueJ
Try them and weigh me whate'er be my dueJ
