The National Guardsman Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDEDEFGFH

I'm a gorgeous golden heroA
And my trade is taking lifeB
Hear the twittle twittle tweeroA
Of my sibillating fifeB
And the rub a dub a dumC
Of my big bass drumC
I'm an escort strong and boldD
The Grand Army to protectE
My countenance is coldD
And my attitude erectE
I'm a Californian GuardF
And my banner flies aloftG
But the stones are O so hardF
And my feet are O so softH
