The rhyme scheme of stanzas in "The Fly" is ABCB.
Explanation:
"The Fly" is a poem written by William Blake, English poet, painter, and printmaker. It's a part of Blake's collection <em>Songs of Experience</em> published in 1794.
The pattern of rhymes at the end of each line of a poem or song is referred to as its rhyming scheme. The rhyming scheme is expressed by letters, which indicate which lines rhyme. Lines that rhyme with each other are marked by the same letter.
We can use the first two stanzas of "The Fly" to determine its rhyming scheme:
Little Fly
Thy summer's play,
My thoughtless hand
Has brush'd away.
Am not I
A fly like thee?
Or art not thou
A man like me?
The bolded words are the ones that rhyme. We can see that the second and the fourth lines rhyme, while the first and the third don't. This rhyming scheme can be expressed as ABCB. The first line is marked with A, the second and the fourth with B (as they rhyme), and the third is marked with C.
