Question

ms. jameson is using sonnet 18 by william shakespeare to teach her students how to analyze a rhyme scheme. so long as men can breathe or eyes can see, so long lives this, and this gives life to thee. which is the correct rhyme scheme for these lines? o ab o ab o aa o aa

Explanation:

In sonnets, the rhyme - scheme is determined by the end - sounds of the lines. Here, the last words of the two lines "see" and "thee" rhyme. So the two lines have the same rhyme sound, which is represented by the same letter in a rhyme - scheme. Since there are two lines with the same rhyme, the rhyme - scheme is aa.

Answer:

D. aa
