Ms. jameson is using "sonnet 18” by william shakespeare to teach her students how to analyze a rhyme scheme. 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 for these lines? aa aa ab ab

my answer would have to be AA

The correc answer is AA.

Explanation:

The rhyme scheme refers to the pattern of rhyme that comes at the end of each verse or line in poetry.

The rhyme scheme of this verse is AA because the final words of each line ("see" and "thee") end with the same phonetic sound, and therefore, rhyme with each other.

i agree, but what is the question here?

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
