Question

use the drop-down menus to finish marking the rhyme scheme of \an irish airman foresees his death.\ i know that i shall meet my fate a somewhere among the clouds above; b those that i fight i do not hate dropdown those that i guard i do not love; b my country is kiltartan cross, dropdown my countrymen kiltartans poor, dropdown no likely end could bring them loss dropdown or leave them happier than before. d

Explanation:

To determine the rhyme scheme, we match lines with the same rhyme.

• Line 1: "fate" → "a"
• Line 3: "hate" rhymes with "fate" → "a"
• Line 5: "Cross" → new rhyme, let's call it "c"
• Line 6: "poor" rhymes with "Cross"? No, wait, "Cross" (ends with -oss) and "poor" (ends with -oor)? Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's check again. Wait, line 5: "Cross" (rhymes with... line 7: "loss" (ends with -oss). So line 5: "Cross" → "c", line 7: "loss" → "c". Line 6: "poor" (rhymes with line 8: "before" (ends with -ore)? Wait, "poor" and "before" – "poor" is /pʊr/ or /pɔːr/, "before" is /bɪˈfɔːr/ or /bɪˈfɔːr/. So line 6: "poor" → "d"? Wait, no, the last line is "d": "before" → "d". Wait, maybe the correct rhyme scheme is:

Line 1: a

Line 2: b

Line 3: a (rhymes with line 1: "fate" and "hate")

Line 4: b (rhymes with line 2: "above" and "love")

Line 5: c (rhymes with line 7: "Cross" and "loss")

Line 6: d (rhymes with line 8: "poor" and "before")

Line 7: c

Line 8: d

So the drop - down for line 3 is "a", line 5 is "c", line 6 is "d", line 7 is "c".

Answer:

• Line 3 (Those that I fight I do not hate): a
• Line 5 (My country is Kiltartan Cross): c
• Line 6 (My countrymen Kiltartan's poor): d
• Line 7 (No likely end could bring them loss): c
