State's Attorney Fallas Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGHIJKLMANG| I the scourge wielder balance wrecker | A |
| Smiter with whips and swords | B |
| I hater of the breakers of the law | C |
| I legalist inexorable and bitter | A |
| Driving the jury to hang the madman Barry Holden | D |
| Was made as one dead by light too bright for eyes | E |
| And woke to face a Truth with bloody brow | F |
| Steel forceps fumbled by a doctor's hand | G |
| Against my boy's head as he entered life | H |
| Made him an idiot | I |
| I turned to books of science | J |
| To care for him | K |
| That's how the world of those whose minds are sick | L |
| Became my work in life and all my world | M |
| Poor ruined boy You were at last the potter | A |
| And I and all my deeds of charity | N |
| The vessels of your hand | G |
