Oh, Fortune! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAAAAAAAA CD

Oh Fortune how thy restlesse wavering stateA
Hath fraught with cares my troubled wittB
Witnes this present prisonn whither fateA
Could beare me and the joys I quittA
Thou causedest the guiltie to be losedA
From bandes wherein are innocents inclosedA
Causing the guiltles to be straite reservedA
And freeing those that death had well deservedA
But by her envie can be nothing wroughteA
So God send to my foes all they have thoughteA
