Answer 1

AABB

Explanation:

The Rhyme Scheme is AABB.

Because,

In the end of 1st and 2nd line, last words are rhyming. i.e. (AA rhyme)

Same in 3rd and 4th, end word of these lines are also in rhyme. i.e. (BB rhyme)

The rhyme scheme continued to next lines in the poem as end word of 5th and 6th , 7th and 8th....are rhyming words.

So,

The rhyme scheme of the poem is AABB.

The poet of this poem is T.S. Eliot.

Note :-

Rhyme scheme depends on last sound (last word) of every line in the poem.

Like :-

ABAB rhyme, it means the last word of 1st and 3rd are in rhyme. And last word of 2nd and 4th are in rhyme.

Here,

last word of 1st & 2nd line are in rhyme. And 3rd & 4th line's last words are in rhyme. That's why the rhyme scheme is AABB.
