Chase Henry Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJK| In life I was the town drunkard | A |
| When I died the priest denied me burial | B |
| In holy ground | C |
| The which redounded to my good fortune | D |
| For the Protestants bought this lot | E |
| And buried my body here | F |
| Close to the grave of the banker Nicholas | G |
| And of his wife Priscilla | H |
| Take note ye prudent and pious souls | I |
| Of the cross currents in life | J |
| Which bring honor to the dead who lived in shame | K |
