Little Joke Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD

Stripping an almond tree in flowerA
The wise apothecary's skillB
A single drop of lethal powerA
From perfect sweetness can distillB
-
From bitterness in efflorescenceC
With murderous poisons packed thereinD
The poet draws pellucid essenceC
Pure as a drop of metheglinD
