Rain in the Summer"
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

How beautiful is the rain!
After the dust and heat,
In the broad and fiery street,
In the narrow lane,

How beautiful is the rain!
How it clatters along the roofs,
Like the tramp of hoofs
How it gushes and struggles out
From the throat of the overflowing spout!
What is the rhyme scheme of the first and second stanza?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The first stanza is ABBA

The second stanza is ABBCC

Explanation:

In the first stanza- The first and last line rhymes so they make for the "A" - the second and third line rhyme which makes for the "B"

In the second stanza- The first line stands alone so it makes for the "A" - the second and third line rhyme which makes for the "B" and the the fourth and fifth line rhyme, which makes for the "C".
