MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Which of the following is an example of common meter?

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me, I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind but now I see.

Waves of the ocean, bubbling and gurgling, blithely prying,Waves, undulating waves--liquid, uneven, emulous waves,Toward that whirling current, laughing and buoyant, with curves,Where the great Vessel, sailing and tacking, displaced the surface

What happens to a dream deferred?Does it dry uplike a raisin in the sun?Or fester like a sore—And then run?

See, they return; ah, see the tentative Movements, and the slow feet,The trouble in the pace and the uncertainWavering!

Which of the following lines would correctly finish this stanza, demonstrating slant rhyme? I walked across the empty lane, Afraid to see the light; Searched around for answers,

That weren't so black and white

Searched with all my might

Knowledge is worth the fight

To alleviate the pain
