Twin Unworthies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFYe parasites that to the rich men stick | A |
As to the fattest sheep the thrifty tick | A |
Ed'ard to Stanford and to Crocker Ben | B |
To Ben and Ed'ard many meaner men | B |
And lice to these who do the kind of work | C |
That thieves would have the honesty to shirk | C |
Whose wages are that your employers own | D |
The fat that reeks upon your every bone | D |
And deigns to ask the flattery how sweet | E |
About its health and how it stands the heat | E |
Hail and farewell I meant to write about you | F |
But no my page is cleaner far without you | F |
