Hate Not, Fear Not Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF

Kill if you must but never hateA
Man is but grass and hate is blightB
The sun will scorch you soon or lateA
Die wholesome then since you must fightB
-
Hate is a fear and fear is rotC
That cankers root and fruit alikeD
Fight cleanly then hate not fear notC
Strike with no madness when you strikeD
-
Fever and fear distract the worldE
But calm be you though madmen shoutF
Through blazing fires of battle hurledE
Hate not strike fear not stare Death outF
