What is the Rhyme Scheme of the poem Michael?

1 Answer

  1. The majority of “Michael”‘s rhyme scheme is in blank verse, therefore there is no set pattern of end rhymes. Wordsworth does, however, occasionally incorporate rhyme and meter into the poem to improve its melody and flow. Although the poem’s structure is mostly unrhymed, there are some end rhymes and internal rhymes that give the lines a rhythmic feel. These sporadic rhymes give the poem a feeling of harmony and balance while enabling a more adaptable and organic representation of the narrative and emotions expressed.
