Even In The Grave Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCADBBD EFGFEG

I laid my inventory at the handA
Of Death who in his gloomy arbour sateB
And while he conned it sweet and desolateC
I heard Love singing in that quiet landA
He read the record even to the endD
The heedless livelong injuries of FateB
The burden of foe the burden of love and hateB
The wounds of foe the bitter wounds of friendD
-
All all he read ay even the indifferenceE
The vain talk vainer silence hope and dreamF
He questioned me What seek'st thou then insteadG
I bowed my face in the pale evening gleamF
Then gazed he on me with strange innocenceE
Even in the grave thou wilt have thyself he saidG
