Question

complete the rhyme scheme.
a b b c
last night i heard your voice, mother,
the words you sang to me
when i, a little barefoot boy,
kneit down against your knee.

Explanation:

To determine the rhyme scheme, we look at the ending sounds of each line.

• The first line ends with "mother".
• The second line ends with "me".
• The third line ends with "boy".
• The fourth line ends with "knee".

Since "me" and "knee" rhyme (they have the same ending sound /iː/), they are assigned the same letter. "Mother" and "boy" have different ending sounds from each other and from "me"/"knee".
