That Music Always Round Me Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACBDEFGAHAIJKLM

THAT music always round me unceasing unbeginning yet long untaughtA
I did not hearB
But now the chorus I hear and am elatedA
A tenor strong ascending with power and health with glad notes ofC
day break I hearB
A soprano at intervals sailing buoyantly over the tops of immenseD
wavesE
A transparent bass shuddering lusciously under and through theF
universeG
The triumphant tutti the funeral wailings with sweet flutes andA
violins all these I fill myself withH
I hear not the volumes of sound merely I am moved by the exquisiteA
meaningsI
I listen to the different voices winding in and out strivingJ
contending with fiery vehemence to excel each other in emotionK
I do not think the performers know themselves but now I think IL
begin to know themM
