A Holy Week Song, 1918 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFC GCH DIFI JBJBDEFE

Now when Christ died for man his sakeA
A myriad men must dieB
His Via Crucis they must takeA
And share His CalvaryC
God keep ye gallant gentlemenD
Let nothing you dismayE
Who share Lord Jesus Christ His painF
Upon this Good FridayC
-
Now some shall turn and meet His gazeG
And say 'Remember meC
When Thou art come to Thine own placeH
Where ransomed sinners be '-
God rest ye gallant gentlemenD
For ye are bought with priceI
This day there wends a shining trainF
The way to ParadiseI
-
The day our Lord Christ lay in graveJ
The dead are piled so highB
The field slow moving like a waveJ
Sends up a mortal cryB
God love ye gallant gentlemenD
Let nothing you dismayE
For life is born and Death is slainF
Upon the Easter DayE
