Deacon Taylor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDBEFG

I belonged to the churchA
And to the party of prohibitionB
And the villagers thought I died of eating watermelonB
In truth I had cirrhosis of the liverC
For every noon for thirty yearsD
I slipped behind the prescription partitionB
In Trainor's drug storeE
And poured a generous drinkF
From the bottle marked Spiritus frumentiG
