Evil Land Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CDCCCEFCCD

We meet in an evil landA
That is near to the gates of hellB
I wait for thy commandA
To serve to speed or withstandA
And thou sayest I do not wellB
-
Oh Love the flowers so redC
Are only tongues of flameD
The earth is full of the deadC
The new killed restless deadC
There is danger beneath and o'erheadC
And I guard thy gates in fearE
Of words thou canst not hearF
Of peril and jeopardyC
Of signs thou canst not seeC
And thou sayest 'tis ill that I cameD
