Describe the form and type of the poem "the eagle"

He clasbs the crag with crooked hands

Close to the sun in lonely lands

Ring'd with the azure blue he stands

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls

He watch es from the mountain walls

And like a thunderbolt he falls

This is a standard poetic form. Tennyson uses two stanzas with a series of three rhyming lines hence rhyming triplets. The rhyme scheme is focussed on one syllable of one word.
