The second, fourth, and seventh lines make use of end rhyme (rhymes: see, me, company), and the sixth and eighth lines do as well (rhymes: dead, dread). Lines nine and eleven also rhyme (rhymes: soul, goal) as do lines ten and twelve (rhymes: hand, sand). Finally, lines fourteen and sixteen rhyme (rhymes: mind, find). Thus, the poem does not possess anything approaching a regular rhyme scheme. However, if you need someone to express the end rhyme in the poem in a straightforward way, it would go something like this: abcbdefbfghghijklkmn. Each letter corresponds to a line in the poem, and if that letter has a match or even two in the string, this indicates that those lines possess rhyming words at their ends.
