Peace To The Slumberers! (catalonian Air.) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBCA DEFEFD FAAAAF

Peace to the slumberersA
They lie on the battle plainB
With no shroud to cover themC
The dew and the summer rainB
Are all that weep over themC
Peace to the slumberersA
-
Vain was their braveryD
The fallen oak lies where it layE
Across the wintry riverF
But brave hearts once swept awayE
Are gone alas foreverF
Vain was their braveryD
-
Woe to the conquerorF
Our limbs shall lie as cold as theirsA
Of whom his sword bereft usA
Ere we forget the deep arrearsA
Of vengeance they have left usA
Woe to the conquerorF
