Liberty Rejected Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBA CCDEC FFBB GGHH

About this heart thou hastA
Thy chains made fastA
And think'st thou I would beB
Therefrom set freeB
And forth unbound be castA
-
The ocean would as soonC
Entreat the moonC
Unsay the magic verseD
That seals him hersE
From silver noon to noonC
-
She stooped her pearly headF
Seaward and saidF
'Would'st thou I gave to theeB
Thy libertyB
In Time's youth forfeited '-
-
And from his inmost holdG
The answer rolledG
'Thy bondman to remainH
Is sweeter painH
Dearer an hundredfold '-
