Answer:
XAXA
Explanation:
As you may already know, rhymes are the sounds repeated at the end of the vesos of a poem. The rhymes are created to give a rhythm and a musicality in poetry, leaving it with a more musical and harmonious air.
The rhymes have patterns that are organized according to the repetition of the same line between the verses. Verses with the same rhymes receive the same letter, verses with different rhymes receive a different letter. Usually these letters are "A" and "B", the verses that do not have a rhyme present the letter "X".
Based on this, we can say that the rhyme pattern in the passage shown in the passage above has the pattern "XAXA," since the first and third verses do not rhyme, but the second and fourth verse rhyme with each other.
