A March Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCBBDD EDreary East winds howling o'er us | A |
Clay lands knee deep spread before us | A |
Mire and ice and snow and sleet | B |
Aching backs and frozen feet | B |
Knees which reel as marches quicken | C |
Ranks which thin as corpses thicken | C |
While with carrion birds we eat | B |
Calling puddle water sweet | B |
As we pledge the health of our general who fares as rough as we | D |
What can daunt us what can turn us led to death by such as he | D |
