Sinister Sooth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACDE FGFHII JKLKMN

You say I am the slave of FateA
Bound by unalterable lawsB
I harken but your words I hateA
Your damnable Effect and CauseC
If there's no hope for happy ChanceD
Give me the bliss of ignoranceE
-
You say my life ends with the tombF
This brain my mind machine will rotG
Its many million cells that roomF
My personality and thoughtH
Will in the Dark Destroyer's termI
Provide a banquet for the wormI
-
You say yet though your wisdom wellsJ
To it I am unreconciledK
My mind admits my heart rebelsL
O let me listen like a childK
To Him who spoke with blessed breathM
From bench of toil in NazarethN
