The Golf-ball And The Loan. After Longfellow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD DDEE

I drove a golf ball into the airA
It fell to earth I knew not whereA
For so swiftly it flew the sightB
Could not follow it in its flightB
-
I lent five shillings to some menC
They spent it all I know not whenC
For who is quick enough to knowD
The time in which a crown may goD
-
Long long afterward in a whinD
I found the golf ball black as sinD
But the five shillings are missing stillE
They haven't turned up and I doubt if they willE
