Internal rhyme is the rhyme between a word within a line and another word either in the same line or in another line. In "Oh, last summer green things were greener", "green" and "greener" rhyme within the line. In "Brambles fewer, the blue sky bluer", "blue" and "bluer" rhyme within the line. In "Come one swallow, his mate will follow", "swallow" and "follow" rhyme within the line.

Answer:

Oh, last summer green things were greener.
Brambles fewer, the blue sky bluer.
Come one swallow, his mate will follow.
