Merdle The Banker Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDE| Now Merdle this day having toss'd with his horns | A |
| The bears that were pulling so hard at the stocks | B |
| And gored every bull that was treading his corns | A |
| Had lined all his pockets with plenty of rocks | B |
| And home now was driving at two forty speed | C |
| Where dinner was waiting a jolly good feed | C |
| - | |
| Himself feeling happy he knew by my looks | D |
| A case full of sadness and deep destitution | E |
| Was present in person not read of in books | D |
| Appealing in pity for an alms institution | E |
