How Sleep The Brave Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF

Nay nay sweet England do not grieveA
Not one of these poor men who diedB
But did within his soul believeA
That death for thee was glorifiedB
-
Ever they watched it hovering nearC
That mystery 'yond thought to plumbD
Perchance sometimes in loath d fearC
They heard cold Danger whisper ComeD
-
Heard and obeyed O if thou weepE
Such courage and honour beauty careF
Be it for joy that those who sleepE
Only thy joy could shareF
