Question

question 8 of 10
which pair of lines uses internal rhyme?

a. stars scatter in the east tonight
and call to me in foreign tongues

b. stars scatter in the east tonight
and glow bare and bright.

c. stars scatter in the east tonight
and tell us it is getting late.

d. stars scatter in the east tonight
and the clouds tatter and fade.

Explanation:

Internal rhyme is when rhyming words appear within a single line or across consecutive lines, not just at the line endings. In option D, "scatter" (from the first line) rhymes with "tatter" (from the second line), creating an internal rhyme. The other options only have end rhymes or no rhyming pairs within/across the lines.

Answer:

D. Stars scatter in the east tonight
and the clouds tatter and fade.
