Alton Locke's Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCCB DEFFFE GHIIIH J

Weep weep weep and weepA
For pauper dolt and slaveB
Hark from wasted moor and fenC
Feverous alley stifling denC
Swells the wail of Saxon menC
Work or the graveB
-
Down down down and downD
With idler knave and tyrantE
Why for sluggards cark and moilF
He that will not live by toilF
Has no right on English soilF
God's word's our warrantE
-
Up up up and upG
Face your game and play itH
The night is past behold the sunI
The idols fall the lie is doneI
The Judge is set the doom begunI
Who shall stay itH

On Torridge MayJ
