Question

Explain the concluding four lines of poem "Stopping by woods
on a Snowy Evening"

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening consists of four stanzas of  four lines each. In each stanza the first, second and fourth lines rhyme but the third line does not. The third line rather determines the rhyme of the next stanza. For instance, in the first stanza ‘know’, ‘though’ and ‘snow’ rhyme, but ‘here’ rhymes with ‘queer’, ‘near’ and ‘year’ in the next stanza. As an exception, in the last stanza, all four lines are rhyming though. So the rhyme scheme is AABA-BBCB-CCDC-DDDD and it is written in Iambic tetrameter, having four stressed syllables in each line.
