The Cause Won Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEEEFFGG| Two neighbours furiously dispute | A |
| A field the subject of the suit | A |
| Trivial the spot yet such the rage | B |
| With which the combatants engage | B |
| 'Twere hard to tell who covets most | C |
| The prize at whatsoever cost | D |
| The pleadings swell Words still suffice | E |
| No single word but has its price | E |
| No term but yields some fair pretence | E |
| For novel and increased expense | E |
| Defendant thus becomes a name | F |
| Which he that bore it may disclaim | F |
| Since both in one description blended | G |
| Are plaintiffs when the suit is ended | G |
