Treasure Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDECFFFFFG| Here is a tale for infants and old nurses | A |
| There was a man who gathered rags and peddled | B |
| Who lived alone with no one ever meddled | B |
| And this old man was very fond of verses | A |
| His house a ruin so the tale rehearses | C |
| A hovel over run of rats and vermin | D |
| Not fit for beast to live in Like a sermon | E |
| Embodying misery and hell and curses | C |
| There one grey dawn of rain and windy weather | F |
| They found him dead starved o'er a written paper | F |
| Beside a dim and half expiring taper | F |
| It was a play the poor fool'd put together | F |
| Of gnomes and fairies for his own sad pleasure | F |
| And folks destroyed it saying 'We seek for treasure ' | G |
