Question

question 1 of 10
read these lines from emily dickinsons poem \324\ (\some keep the sabbath going to church\):
some keep the sabbath going to church -
i keep it, staying at home -
with a bobolink for a chorister -
and an orchard, for a dome -
what is the rhyme scheme here?
a. abcd
b. abcb
c. aabb
d. abca

Explanation:

Label each line's end sound sequentially. Line 1 ("Church") = a; Line 2 ("Home") = b; Line 3 ("Chorister") = c; Line 4 ("Dome") = b (matches Line 2's end sound). Thus the rhyme scheme is abcb.

Answer:

B. abcb
