Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSI TUV

Your attention Thomas Rhodes president of the bankA
Coolbaugh Whedon editor of the ArgusB
Rev Peet pastor of the leading churchC
A D Blood several times Mayor of Spoon RiverD
And finally all of you members of the Social Purity ClubE
Your attention to Cambronne's dying wordsF
Standing with the heroic remnantG
Of Napoleon's guard on Mount Saint JeanH
At the battle field of WaterlooI
When Maitland the Englishman called to themJ
Surrender brave FrenchmenK
There at close of day with the battle hopelessly lostL
And hordes of men no longer the armyM
Of the great NapoleonN
Streamed from the field like ragged stripsO
Of thunder clouds in the stormP
Well what Cambronne said to MaitlandQ
Ere the English fire made smooth the brow of the hillR
Against the sinking light of dayS
Say I to you and all of youI
And to you O worldT
And I charge you to carve itU
Upon my stoneV
