Question

The structure of “Ballad of Birmingham” by Dudley Randall is described best as __________.

Answer 1

Well, depending on the answers you are given, it could either be a folk ballad or an elegiac broadside. It is based on the traditional English folk ballad, in that it tells a story, doesn't have many characters, has a moral of the story. And finally, an elegiac broadside is a mournful, plaintive ballad.
