Answer:
The statements which describe the sonnet's rhyme scheme and its effects are:
A. The rhyme scheme is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.
E. The regular rhyme scheme makes the sonnet sound musical and memorable.
Explanation:
We can say two words rhyme when their final sounds are the same. For example: say - play; crash - dash.
<u>To find the rhyme scheme in a poem, we must look at the last word of each line.</u> The first last word to appear in this sonnet is "long". We will call it A. Any other words that sound like "long" will also be called A. The second last word to appear is "might". Since it does not sound like "long", we will call it B. This is what we will keep on doing with all last words and the letters of the alphabet.
With that in mind, this is what we have in Sonnet 100:
long A
might B
song A
light B
redeem C
spent D
esteem C
argument D
survey E
there F
decay E
where F
life G
knife G
<u>Thus, the rhyme scheme is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.</u>
<u>When the lines of a poem rhyme, just like the lines above do, the poem acquires certain musicality. There is a cadence, a rhythm that is marked by the rhymes, just like what happens to songs we normally listen to.</u>
