Justice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD E| Ah justice is a virtue bepraised and full of worth | A |
| It castigates the sinner and peoples all the earth | A |
| And kings with care should guard it instead they now forget | B |
| The gem that is most precious in all the coronet | B |
| Some think they may do justice by cruelty I wist | C |
| But 'tis an evil counsel for justice must consist | C |
| In showing deeds of mercy in knowledge of the truth | D |
| And executing judgment it executes with ruth | D |

| Pedro Lopez de Ayala | E |
