Napoleon The Little Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCCBDBD| How well I knew this stealthy wolf would howl | A |
| When in the eagle talons ta'en in air | B |
| A glow I snatched thee from thy prey fowl | A |
| I held thee abject conqueror just where | B |
| All see the stigma of a fitting name | C |
| As deeply red as deeply black's thy shame | C |
| And though thy matchless impudence may frame | C |
| Some mask of seeming courage spite thy sneear | B |
| And thou assurest sloth and skunk 'It does not hurt ' | D |
| Thou feel'st it burning in and in and Fear | B |
| Says 'None forget it till shall hide congenial dirt ' | D |
