The Yukoner Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ACAC BDBD| He burned a hole in frozen muck | A |
| He pierced the icy mould | B |
| And there in six foot dirt he struck | A |
| A sack or so of gold | B |
| - | |
| He burned holes in the Decalogue | A |
| And then it cam about | C |
| For Fortune's just a lousy rogue | A |
| His pocket petered out | C |
| - | |
| And lo 'twas but a year all told | B |
| When there in a shadow grim | D |
| In six feet deep of icy mould | B |
| They burned a hole for him | D |
