Tom Moody Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEAAFGDDBH| Death had beckoned with grisly hand | A |
| To the finest Whip in hunting land | A |
| My time is short Tom Moody said | B |
| Master when I am done and dead | B |
| Lay me at Barrow beneath the yew | C |
| In the dear old shire we have hunted through | C |
| Let six earth stoppers carry me there | D |
| With slow step and heads bare | D |
| Bring the old horse that I used to ride | E |
| With my whip and boots to his saddle tied | E |
| Fasten the brush in his forehead band | A |
| Of the last dog fox we brought to hand | A |
| And let a couple of old hounds come | F |
| Fitting mourners to follow me home | G |
| Then when you've laid me safe down there | D |
| Give three view holloas will shake the air | D |
| And you'll know if I do not lift my head | B |
| There is no mistake Tom Moody's dead ' | H |
