Doc Hill Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFDGHGIJKL| I went up and down the streets | A |
| Here and there by day and night | B |
| Through all hours of the night caring for the poor who were sick | C |
| Do you know why | D |
| My wife hated me my son went to the dogs | E |
| And I turned to the people and poured out my love to them | F |
| Sweet it was to see the crowds about the lawns on the day of my | D |
| funeral | G |
| And hear them murmur their love and sorrow | H |
| But oh dear God my soul trembled scarcely able | G |
| To hold to the railing of the new life | I |
| When I saw Em Stanton behind the oak tree | J |
| At the grave | K |
| Hiding herself and her grief | L |
