The Sanctuary Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDDCEE

If I could keep my innermost MeA
Fearless aloof and freeA
Of the least breath of love or hateB
And not disconsolateB
At the sick load of sorrow laid on menC
If I could keep a sanctuary thereD
Free even of prayerD
If I could do this thenC
With quiet candor as I grew more wiseE
I could look even at God with grave forgiving eyesE
