Identify the rhyme scheme in this excerpt from a William Blake poem.

THE ECHOING GREEN
The sun does arise;
And make happy the skies;
The merry bells ring;
To welcome the Spring;
The skylark and thrush;
The birds of the bush;
Sing louder around;
To the bells' cheerful sound;
While our sports shall be seen;
On the echoing Green
