Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CAC ACAC

Birth and death twin sister and twin brotherA
Night and day on all things that draw breathB
Reign while time keeps friends with one anotherA
Birth and deathB
-
Each brow bound with flowers diverse of wreathC
Heaven they hail as father earth as motherA
Faithful found above them and beneathC
-
Smiles may lighten tears and tears may smotherA
Smiles for all that joy or sorrow saithC
Joy nor sorrow knows not from each otherA
Birth and deathC
