The Judgement Of England Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDEEAA| 'Ill fares the land to hastening ills a prey | A |
| Where Wealth accumulates and Men decay ' | B |
| So rang of old the noble voice in vain | C |
| O'er the Last Peasants wandering on the plain | C |
| Doom has reversed the riddle and the rhyme | D |
| While sinks the commerce reared upon that crime | D |
| The thriftless towns litter with lives undone | E |
| To whom our madness left no joy but one | E |
| And irony that glares like Judgment Day | A |
| Sees Men accumulate and Wealth decay | A |
