How did Jekyll react to Utterson’s and Enfield’s invitation to go for a walk?
iren [92.7K]

In "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", by Robert Louis Stevenson, Utterson and Enfield are taking their usual walk. It is a Sunday. They come to the front of the door in which they have seen Hyde enter and is also the back way to Dr. Jekyll's place. They think of inviting Dr. Jekyll to join them for a walk. They reach the middle window that is half-open and Utterson sees Dr. Jekyll sitting beside the window. When he is addressed Dr. Jekyll answers he is very low, and that this state won't last very long. He says that he is very glad for the invitation but that he dares not to go. He cannot let them in either, because the place is not fit. They plan to talk from where they are. The smile on Dr. Jekyll's face gives place to an expression of terror and despair, as he shuts the window hastily.

What is the affect of couplets in "to my dear loving husband" and "to the kings most excellent majesty
Paha777 [63]

Traditional poetry usually has regular rhythms that set a pattern, making it easier to remember for recitation. These rhythms are especially enjoyable, because they reflect the natural movement of the human body. That's why poems with regular rhythms are often set to music for marching and dancing, amplifying the effect of the beat.

So basically, the rhyming and rhythms in these two poems makes the poem flow better and sound better. It also makes it easier to memorize.
