Hi. You have not submitted the essay this question refers to, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try and help as best I can.
It is only possible to know how the reference to King Midas is important for the essay if the reading of the essay is done. However, King Midas is known to be a very ambitious and wealth-obsessed King, even to the point of selling his own soul to become richer, which causes him to lose his most precious possession, his daughter. In this case, we can consider that the essay must present this king to draw a parallel between the subject of the essay and this tragic story of Midas, stimulated by the thirst for riches. We can therefore consider that the reference to Midas serves to intensify some of Chesterton's positions within the essay.
This is an example of an allusion, because an allusion is a figure of speech that allows a text to make references to other texts, people, characters, places and external situations.

Hey there!
The most common belief for why he did this was to promote originality. Most poets in that time used rhyming meters, and they still do today. In fact, you were probably taught rhyming meters in school - they follow rhythm and pattern that isn't subject to change.
Robert Frost wanted to break the rules. Considering the nonexistent popularity of the style he intended to use, he created an entire new type of poetry and writing by breaking the rules themselves. There was no rhyme, but there certainly was reason.
Hope this helps!
