Shall i compare thee to a piece of toast? thou art more scrumptious and delectable: unevenly the elements may glow’st, and sticking levers are detestable: sometimes too long the slice of bread doth roast, and seldom do the crumbs not make a mess; and often it is much too sweet for most, if one should drizzle honey in excess; but thy eternal warmth shall never cool, nor shall thee lose thy lovely golden hue; and i’ll rejoice that fate hath not been cruel, each morning on beholding thee anew; on this perception all the world agrees, that no delicious bread’s divine as thee what is the rhyme scheme of this poem? question 1 options: a. aabbccddeeffgg b. ababcdcdefefgg c. abcbdefegghh question 2 the poem ends in a

B. ABABCDCDEFEFGG
When determining a rhyme scheme, the first line is always labeled A. Any line that ends with the same sound as the first line also receives an A. So in the stanza the first lines ends with the /ost/ sound "toast", "glow'st" has the same sound so it is also labeled A. The line ending in delectable doesn't end with /ost/ so it needs to be labeled with the next letter of the alphabet - B. Since also rhymes with delectable it also received the label B. The next sound is roast and it technically should receive an A. There are varying thoughts on this. Some people say that since it's a new stanza the rhymes don't carry over, but others believe they do. You don't have the A as an option though past the first four linesSince this poem is a sonnet that follows Shakespeare's Sonnet 18 "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day..." we can assume that the rhyme scheme should be the same as a Shakespearean sonnet which is traditionally ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.
Question 2: rhyming couplet
There are no options given. Since the first question discussed rhyme scheme I'm going to assume that we are still talking about the poem's form. In this case, the sonnet usually ends in a rhyming couplet. A rhyming couplet is two lines that rhyme, one directly after another. This is another trait of the Shakespearean sonnet. These lines usually are a final summary statement, comment or question.

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire, mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
