Question

select the correct answer.
what is the greatest difference between ben jonsons poems on my first son and song: to celia?
a: meter
b: tone
c: rhyme scheme
d: language

Explanation:

"On My First Son" is a deeply personal and sorrowful poem about the loss of a child, so it has a somber tone. "Song 'to Celia'" is a more light - hearted and romantic poem, so it has a more playful and affectionate tone. Meter (A) refers to the rhythmic structure of a poem (e.g., iambic pentameter), rhyme scheme (C) is the pattern of rhymes at the end of lines, and language (D) is more about the vocabulary and style in a general sense. The most significant difference between the two poems is the tone.

Answer:

B. tone
