Happy The Lab'rer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBCBBBBD| Happy the lab'rer in his Sunday clothes | A |
| In light drab coat smart waistcoat well darn'd hose | B |
| Andhat upon his head to church he goes | B |
| As oft with conscious pride he downward throws | B |
| A glance upon the ample cabbage rose | B |
| That stuck in button hole regales his nose | B |
| He envies not the gayest London beaux | C |
| In church he takes his seat among the rows | B |
| Pays to the place the reverence he owes | B |
| Likes best the prayers whose meaning least he knows | B |
| Lists to the sermon in a softening doze | B |
| And rouses joyous at the welcome close | D |
