Compensation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEFE

Why should I keep holidayA
When other men have noneB
Why but because when these are gayA
I sit and mourn aloneC
-
And why when mirth unseals all tonguesD
Should mine alone be dumbE
Ah late I spoke to silent throngsF
And now their hour is comeE
