Ironic Poem About Prostitution Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH

When I was young and had no senseA
In far off MandalayB
I lost my heart to a Burmese girlC
As lovely as the dayB
-
Her skin was gold her hair was jetD
Her teeth were ivoryE
I said for twenty silver piecesF
Maiden sleep with meE
-
She looked at me so pure so sadG
The loveliest thing aliveH
And in her lisping virgin voiceI
Stood out for twenty fiveH

George Orwell (eric Arthur Blair)
