MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
30 sec • 1 pt
"Tyrants fear the poet / Now that we know it"
internal rhyme
end rhyme
These lines do not rhyme
Answer explanation
remember that the / indicates a new line and even though the words do not have the same spelling, they do have the same sound, so this is an example of an end rhyme.
