Judge Somers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFAGHIJKHow does it happen tell me | A |
That I who was most erudite of lawyers | B |
Who knew Blackstone and Coke | C |
Almost by heart who made the greatest speech | D |
The court house ever heard and wrote | E |
A brief that won the praise of Justice Breese | F |
How does it happen tell me | A |
That I lie here unmarked forgotten | G |
While Chase Henry the town drunkard | H |
Has a marble block topped by an urn | I |
Wherein Nature in a mood ironical | J |
Has sown a flowering weed | K |
