The Last Of The Leal'december 31, 1787 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAABAB ABAAB ABAAB ABAABBAB

Here's a health to every manA
Bore the brunt of wind and weatherB
Winnowed sore by Fortune's fanA
Faded faith of chief and clanA
Nairne and Caryl stand togetherB
Here's a health to every manA
Bore the brunt of wind and weatherB
-
Oh round Charlie many ranA
When his foot was on the heatherB
When his sword shone in the vanA
Now at ending of his spanA
Gask and Caryl stand togetherB
-
Ne'er a hope from plot or planA
Ne'er a hope from rose or heatherB
Ay the King's a broken manA
Few will bless and most will banA
Nairne and Caryl stand togetherB
-
Help is none from Crown or clanA
France is false a fluttered featherB
But Kings are not made by manA
Till God end what God beganA
Nairne and Caryl stand togetherB
Gask and Caryl stand togetherB
Here's a health to every manA
Bore the brunt of wind and weatherB
