Counting The Mad Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEF EGHIEF JKLLEF

This one was put in a jacketA
This one was sent homeB
This one was given bread and meatC
But would eat noneD
And this one cried No No No NoE
All day longF
-
-
This one looked at the windowE
As though it were a wallG
This one saw things that were not thereH
This one things that wereI
And this one cried No No No NoE
All day longF
-
-
This one thought himself a birdJ
This one a dogK
And this one thought himself a manL
An ordinary manL
And cried and cried No No No NoE
All day longF
