I Read A Statement In A Newspaper Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFGHIJKL| I read a statement in a newspaper | A |
| That Twentyman the manufacturer | A |
| Found it was cheaper to deliver goods | B |
| By horse and lorry than by motor truck | C |
| Or motor van So he had sold his trucks | D |
| To purchase horses He dismissed those men | E |
| Who had mechanics' minds to re employ | F |
| Drivers of horses friends of animals | G |
| Then life grew stronger in me because life | H |
| Had triumphed in this case and would perhaps | I |
| Finally triumph over the machine | J |
| Even such mean commercial victory | K |
| Being better than no victory at all | L |
