Answer 9

My mediaeval knees lack health until they bend,
But in that woman, in that household where -----
Honour had lived so long, all lacking found.
Childless I thought, 'My children may find here ----
Deep-rooted things,' but never foresaw its end,
And now that end has come I have not wept;
No fox can foul the lair the badger swept

Didnt realize I didnt include the excerpt

Answer 10

I put lines after where the rhyme is

Answer 11

I dont see internal rhymes or double rhymes in what you posted but from what I googled it seems like a double rhyme

Answer 12

The internal rhyme was in there, but not the double rhyme.

Answer 13

but wouldnt an internal rhyme be on the same line or does it not have to be that way and its just a type

Answer 14

Huh? Oh no. I wasn't saying it was an internal rhyme. I was just saying it was in the link I posted. To me, I would say it's an eye rhyme, but unfortunately, that's not one of the options, so it must be something else...

Answer 15

Out of the choices of available would you agree that it is a double rhyme

Answer 16

that are*

Answer 17

It can't be a double rhyme since even the very last syllables don't rhyme. I'd say the closest to an eye rhyme is a slant rhyme, because they sound almost the same, but not quite.

Answer 18

so where and here is a slant rhyme

Answer 19

Yes

Answer 20

this stuff is confusing Thanks for the help tho

Answer 21

Lol. No problem. A slant rhyme is basically an almost rhyme. Like how where has an air sound and here has an eer sound. It's not quite the same.

Answer 22

A lot of rhymes are that way I thought that was the point of rhymes in general

Answer 23

Rhymes are words that sound exactly alike, like Doodle and Noodle.

Answer 24

What is the most common rhyme type

Answer 25

They're called end rhymes. It's when only the ending syllable rhymes like the words red and said.

Answer 26

Oh okay
