Deacon Taylor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDBEFG| I belonged to the church | A |
| And to the party of prohibition | B |
| And the villagers thought I died of eating watermelon | B |
| In truth I had cirrhosis of the liver | C |
| For every noon for thirty years | D |
| I slipped behind the prescription partition | B |
| In Trainor's drug store | E |
| And poured a generous drink | F |
| From the bottle marked Spiritus frumenti | G |
