When I'm Killed Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC ADAEFF AGAGHH

When I'm killed don't think of meA
Buried there in Cambrin WoodB
Nor as in Zion think of meA
With the Intolerable GoodB
And there's one thing that I know wellC
I'm damned if I'll be damned to HellC
-
So when I'm killed don't wait for meA
Walking the dim corridorD
In Heaven or Hell don't wait for meA
Or you must wait for evermoreE
You'll find me buried living deadF
In these verses that you've readF
-
So when I'm killed don't mourn for meA
Shot poor lad so bold and youngG
Killed and gone don't mourn for meA
On your lips my life is hungG
O friends and lovers you can saveH
Your playfellow from the graveH
