Atkins Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEBC| Yonder's the man with his life in his hand | A |
| Legs on the march for whatever the land | A |
| Or to the slaughter or to the maiming | B |
| Getting the dole of a dog for pay | C |
| Laurels he clasps in the words 'duty done ' | D |
| England his heart under every sun | E |
| Exquisite humour that gives him a naming | B |
| Base to the ear as an ass's bray | C |
