But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st, Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st, So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. Which is the correct rhyme scheme

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Explanation:

These lines are from William Shakespeare's famous poem called "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" or commonly known as "Sonnet 18". In this poem, the poet uses the rhyme scheme of ABAB till the twelfth line. However, the last two lines of poem ends with the rhyme scheme of AA because it consists of only 14 lines, hence called a sonnet.

The rhyming couplet at the end is the most effective rhyme scheme because it sums up the whole argument of the poem and reveals the main theme.

1.creeping like a snail is a simile used in this poem and it means the child is going to school unwillingly./a child is unwilling to go to school.

2. man becomes very frail and loses his physical strength when he becomes old, so much that his leggings that used to fit him snugly when he was in his youth are now too loose for him to wear, and that his shank has shrunk so much that this worldly stage is too big for a feeble actor like him. although, 'his youthful hose' just refers to his leggings/pants/ to shrink from danger; to shrink from contact.

3.the words "sans" means "without." it is a french word that is often used in english even today. so he is saying that in the last age of a man, the man is without eyes, taste, or anything else. he also says that this is the "last stage of all" and that it is the stage that ends a man's "history."

hope this !
