In A Disused Graveyard Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBACCCCDDEEFGFG

The living come with grassy treadA
To read the gravestones on the hillB
The graveyard draws the living stillB
But never anymore the deadA
The verses in it say and sayC
The ones who living come todayC
To read the stones and go awayC
Tomorrow dead will come to stayC
So sure of death the marbles rhymeD
Yet can't help marking all the timeD
How no one dead will seem to comeE
What is it men are shrinking fromE
It would be easy to be cleverF
And tell the stones Men hate to dieG
And have stopped dying now foreverF
I think they would believe the lieG
