Can someone help me please?
What is your question?
What is the rhyme scheme in this excerpt from Longfellow's, "The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls?" The tide rises, the tide falls, The twilight darkens, the curlew calls; Along the sea-sands damp and brown The traveler hastens toward the town, And the tide rises, the tide falls. a. aabba b. ababa c. abcab d. abcca
Mmm, rhyme schemes, my old enemy. Lol, what is your best guess?
A?
Ryhme schemes are not my strongest point, but give me a moment to think.
That sounds right, but I'm not 100%.
Okay thanks can you help with another?
I can try, and I apologize if any guesses are incorrect.
Which of these lines from Shakespeare's "Sonnet 106" ends with an enjambment? Then, in the blazon of sweet beauty's best, 1 Of hand, of foot, of lip, of eye, of brow, 2 I see their antique pen would have expressed 3 Even such a beauty as you master now. 4 Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 Line 4 Thank you!!
I've an idea, and your best guess?
Line 2?
An enjambment is when you go from one line to the next without punctuation halting or slowing the flow of the lines. Ca find that in the stanza?
*can you
Hint: which line has no punctuation at the end?
