A Dream Of Good Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBBDBD EFEFGG

To do some little good before I dieA
To wake some echoes to a loftier themeB
To spend my life's last store of industryC
On thoughts less vain than Youth's discordant dreamB
To endow the world's grief with some counter schemeB
Of logical hope which through all time should lightenD
The burden of men's sorrow and redeemB
Their faces' paleness from the tears that whitenD
-
To take my place in the world's brotherhoodE
As one prepared to suffer all its fateF
To do and be undone for sake of goodE
And conquer rage by giving love for hateF
That were a noble dream and so to ceaseG
Scorned by the proud but with the poor at peaceG
