The Beggar Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEFGH| Shall I a daily beggar be | A |
| For love's sake asking alms of thee | A |
| Still shall I crave and never get | B |
| A hope of my desired bit | C |
| Ah cruel maids I'll go my way | D |
| Whereas perchance my fortunes may | D |
| Find out a threshold or a door | E |
| That may far sooner speed the poor | F |
| Where thrice we knock and none will hear | G |
| Cold comfort still I'm sure lives there | H |
