My Heart Is In The East Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEB E

My heart is in the east and I in the uttermost westA
How can I find savour in food How shall it be sweet to meB
How shall I render my vows and my bonds while yetC
Zion lieth beneath the fetter of Edom and I in Arab chainsD
A light thing would it seem to me to leave all the good things of SpainE
Seeing how precious in mine eyes to behold the dust of the desolate sanctuaryB
