It Was My Fault[1] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCCB DDEFFE GGDHHD

Those men are deemed heroes who rush on the foeA
Regardless of danger and seek not to knowA
What others may doB
Stern duty demands it why should they falterC
If all they hold dear is laid on the altarC
And conscience be trueB
-
The greatest of all is the man who can sayD
When battle is over and foe gained the dayD
The fault was in meE
My plan miscarried through miscalculationF
On me rests the blame and not on the nationF
My soldiers are freeE
-
In George Stewart White and men of like mindG
Our nation can rest for in them you will findG
A true manlinessD
Their failures acknowledged are failures no moreH
Defeat to such men only opens the doorH
To future successD
