Signet Of Eternity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFG HIJ

The day was when I did not keep myself in readiness for theeA
and entering my heart unbidden even as one of the common crowdB
unknown to me my king thou didst press the signet of eternity uponC
many a fleeting moment of my lifeD
-
And today when by chance I light upon them and see thy signatureE
I find they have lain scattered in the dust mixed with the memory ofF
joys and sorrows of my trivial days forgottenG
-
Thou didst not turn in contempt from my childish play among dustH
and the steps that I heard in my playroomI
are the same that are echoing from star to starJ
