It is very obvious that the last verse was not written by the same author who wrote the first four verses.

I have read thousands of poems, and have over 400 books of poetry in my library.

I am also a retired minister.

There are no religious references in the first four verse.

A Christian poet would more likely referred to our Father
in the first four verses.

The original author did not repeat any sets of end rhymes,
yet Alice repeated:

"down" and "crown"
and "cup" and "up"

Please notice that Major Bowes published this poem in 1937
as an Anonymous Verse.

I would like to see an earlier date than 1937 before I would
assign anyone's name to this international poem that is on
my websites.

I look forward to your honest reply.
