The Commercial Traveler Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDDDD| AH very sweet If news should come to you | A |
| Some afternoon while waiting for our eve | B |
| That the great Manager had made me leave | B |
| To travel on some territory new | A |
| And that whatever homeward winds there blew | A |
| I could not touch your hand again nor heave | B |
| The logs upon our hearth and bid you weave | B |
| Some wistful tale before the flames that grew | A |
| - | |
| Then when the sudden tears had ceased to blind | C |
| Your pansied eyes I wonder if you could | D |
| Remember rightly and forget aright | D |
| Remember just your lad uncouthly good | D |
| Forgetting what he failed in spleen or spite | D |
| Could you remember him as always kind | D |
