Seeking Joy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEEDA AFFAGGAA

Joy how I sought theeA
Silver I spent and goldB
On the pleasures of this worldC
In splendid garments cladD
The wine I drank was sweetE
Rich morsels I did eatE
Oh but my life was sadD
Joy how I sought theeA
-
Joy I have found theeA
Far from the halls of MirthF
Back to the soft green earthF
Where people are not manyA
I find thee Joy in hoursG
With clouds and birds and flowersG
Thou dost not charge one pennyA
Joy I have found theeA
