To The Happy Hunting Grounds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMLLNOPQ

Wide windy reaches of high stubble fieldA
A long gray road bordered with dusty pinesB
A wagon moving in a 'cloud by day 'C
Two city sportsmen with a dove betweenD
Breast high upon a fence and fast asleepE
A solitary dove the only doveF
In twenty counties and it sick or elseG
It were not there Two guns that fire as oneH
With thunder simultaneous and loudI
Two shattered human wrecks of blood and boneJ
And later in the gloaming comes a manK
The worthy local coroner is heL
Renowned all thereabout and popularM
With many a remain All tenderlyL
Compiling in a game bag the debrisL
He glides into the gloom and fades from sightN
The dove cured of its ailment by the shockO
Has flown meantime on pinions strong and fleetP
To die of age in some far foreign landQ
