Good evening experts ... In the 2nd stanza (Q 2.) ... b)part ...Q. Rhyme scheme ... Ans. Is ab,aa and b as given by experts . What does aa,ab and b mean? [Book:Beehive ; Poem:The Road Not Taken] ....Thanks in advance

Dear Student,

2(b) The rhyme scheme is abaab.
The first line ends with the sound fair( ending with r). The same ending sound is repeated in line line 3 ( wear - ending with r) and 4( there - ending with r). Let us use 'a' for r end sounds.
Again for line 2 and 5, m is sound is repeated for words claim and same. Let us use 'b' for m sounding words.

So rhyme scheme is abaab.

Regards,
