Poison Of Asps (a Brazilian Snake-farm) (brazilian Verses) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEAE FGFG ACAC

Poison of asps is under our lipsA
Why do you seek us thenB
Breaking our knotted fellowshipsA
With your noisy footed menB
-
Time and time over we let them goC
Hearing and slipping asideD
Until they followed and troubled us soC
We struck back and they diedD
-
Poison of asps is under our lipsA
Why do you wrench them apartE
To learn how the venom makes and dripsA
And works its way to the heartE
-
It is unjust that when we have doneF
All that a serpent shouldG
You gather our poisons one by oneF
And thin them out to your goodG
-
Poison of asps is under our lipsA
That is your answer NoC
Because we hissed at Adam's eclipseA
Is the reason you hate us soC
