Weary Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH IJIJ

WEARY of the ceaseless warA
Beating down the baffled soulB
Thoughts that like a scimitarA
Smite us fainting at the goalB
-
Weary of the joys that painC
Dead sea fruits whose ashes fallD
Drying up the summer s rainC
Charnel dust in cups of gallD
-
Weary of the hopes that failE
Leading from the narrow wayF
Tempting strength to actions frailE
Hand to err and foot to strayF
-
Weary of the battling throngG
False and true in mingled fightH
Weary of the wail of wrongG
And the yearning for the nightH
-
Weary weary weary HeartI
Lacerated crush d and dumbJ
None to know thee as thou artI
When will rest unbroken comeJ
