Explanation:

A Shakespearean sonnet has 14 lines. The last two lines are a rhyming couplet that can offer a new perspective or reinterpret the poem's meaning. They are not part of a quatrain and do not change the sonnet's overall rhythmic pattern which is iambic pentameter throughout.

Answer:

A. They rhyme with each other.
B. They are referred to as a couplet.
D. They may reinterpret the poem's meaning.
(Note: Only three correct options are present among the given ones based on standard Shakespearean sonnet knowledge. If four options must be selected, additional context - based or less - accurate options would need to be considered, but as per standard sonnet structure knowledge, only these three are correct.)
