A Dirge Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACCDEAA| Call for the robin redbreast and the wren | A |
| Since o'er shady groves they hover | B |
| And with leaves and flowers do cover | B |
| The friendless bodies of unburied men | A |
| Call unto his funeral dole | C |
| The ant the field mouse and the mole | C |
| To rear him hillocks that shall keep him warm | D |
| And when gay tombs are robb'd sustain no harm | E |
| But keep the wolf far thence that 's foe to men | A |
| For with his nails he'll dig them up again | A |
