Gold! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAAAAAABCCCB

Gold Gold Gold GoldA
Bright and yellow hard and coldA
Molten graven hammered and rolledA
Heavy to get and light to holdA
Hoarded bartered bought and soldA
Stolen borrowed squandered doledA
Spurned by young but hung by oldA
To the verge of a church yard moldA
Price of many a crime untoldA
Gold Gold Gold GoldA
Good or bad a thousand foldA
How widely it agencies varyB
To save to ruin to curse to blessC
As even its minted coins expressC
Now stamped with the image of Queen BessC
And now of a bloody MaryB
