"__ thou and peace may meet": Shelley (3)

I believe the answer is:

ere

(Other definitions for ere that I've seen before include "Before (in time)" , "Old word for before" , "Before (poetic)" , "Archaic word for before - a palindrome" , "Before, poetically" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
