The meter used in the poem is Iambic
Alja [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The rhyme scheme is ABCB.

In relation to the metric, the poem follows the following pattern:

  • 3 first verses: iambic tetrameter (the verses vary between 8 and 9 syllables)
  • Last verse: iambic dimeter or iambic trimeter (verses vary between 4 and 5 syllables)

Explanation:

The poem is a literary ballad, inspired by the folk ballads of medieval times. It is possible to observe several characteristics typical of a ballad, as the centralization in a single event (the story of the lady reported by the knight), presentation of the story through a dialogue (in the first three stanzas, the unknown narrator is talking to the knight, and the rest of the poem is the knight's response), use of few figures of language as metaphors and metonymy, and creation of an atmosphere (at the beginning of the poem, the narrator describes the nature as dead), and little information about the characters.

Is there a difference between getting older and growing up? Explain.
Hoochie [10]

Getting older objectively only has to do with chronological age. Growing up is more of a subjective term because it could mean an increase in age, an increase in maturity, or a change of personality.

I hope this helps.

Early Sunday morning can best be discribed as a poem
Mekhanik [1.2K]
Try reading some poems about the morning, such as Sylvia Plath's Moring Song, or T.S. Elliots Morning at the Window for inspiration.  Think about how you feel about early Sunday mornings and try to emulate the mood of stillness and serenity so often associated with the morning.  Hope this helps. :)

Oral directions should be memorized or written down.<br> True or False
tatuchka [14]
True because they are being spoken to you, if you don't remember them or write them down you don't have them therefore you will not know what you are doing.
