Merlin's Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCDEFDEDG

Of Merlin wise I learned a songA
Sing it low or sing it loudB
It is mightier than the strongA
And punishes the proudB
I sing it to the surging crowdB
Good men it will calm and cheerC
Bad men it will chain and cageD
In the heart of the music peals a strainE
Which only angels hearF
Whether it waken joy or rageD
Hushed myriads hark in vainE
Yet they who hear it shed their ageD
And take their youth againG
