in this excerpt from \a bird song\ by christina georgina rossetti, which three lines contain internal rhyme?
its a year almost that i have not seen her:
oh, last summer green things were greener,
brambles fewer, the blue sky bluer.
its surely summer, for theres a swallow:
come one swallow, his mate will follow,
the bird race quicken and wheel and thicken.

In "Brambles fewer, the blue sky bluer", "fewer" and "bluer" rhyme internally. In "The bird race quicken and wheel and thicken", "quicken" and "thicken" rhyme internally.

Answer:

"Oh, last summer green things were greener", "Brambles fewer, the blue sky bluer", "The bird race quicken and wheel and thicken"
