Trade Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECFE| Where yonder ruddy misted star | A |
| Is tumbling down the placid sky | B |
| The people s aims were not so high | B |
| As our heroic motives are | A |
| To love and trust they set a bar | A |
| And Profit was their only cry | B |
| They paid but little heed how nigh | B |
| Came thundering the iron car | A |
| - | |
| It rushed upon them and it passed | C |
| Leaving a ghost of pain and fear | D |
| To haunt the ruin it had made | E |
| But surely they have learnt at last | C |
| What far faint murmur can we hear | F |
| Of frantic howling Listen TRADE | E |
