The first five lines of this poem contain rhymes. After line five the rhymes occur less frequently. Why do you think the poet felt it was important to have rhymes at the start, but not throughout the rest of the poem?

The Pillar of Fame
BY ROBERT HERRICK
Fame’s pillar here at last we set,
Out-during marble, brass or jet;
Charmed and enchanted so
As to withstand the blow
O f o v e r t h r o w ;
Nor shall the seas,
Or o u t r a g e s
Of storms, o’erbear
What we uprear;
Tho’ kingdoms fall,
This pillar never shall
Decline or waste at all;
But stand for ever by his own
Firm and well-fixed foundation.
