Jadis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBABABAC| Erewhile before the world was old | A |
| When violets grew and celandine | B |
| In Cupid's train we were enrolled | A |
| Erewhile | C |
| Your little hands were clasped in mine | B |
| Your head all ruddy and sun gold | A |
| Lay on my breast which was your shrine | B |
| And all the tale of love was told | A |
| Ah God that sweet things should decline | B |
| And fires fade out which were not cold | A |
| Erewhile | C |
