Explanation:

Internal rhyme is the rhyme within a single line of poetry. In "Oh, last summer green things were greener", "green" and "greener" rhyme within the line. In "Bram - bles fewer, the blue sky bluer", "fewer" and "bluer" rhyme within the line. In "The bird race quicken and wheel and thicken", "quicken", "wheel" and "thicken" have internal rhyming sounds.

Answer:

Oh, last summer green things were greener.
Brambles fewer, the blue sky bluer.
The bird race quicken and wheel and thicken.
