burthen - meaning, weight, or significance

recompence - reward

loon - a silly of foolish person

rill - a small stream

measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

Explanation:

Burthen is an archaic form of spelling "burden". When we think of a burden, we think of something heavy, difficult to carry around. Therefore, burthen means "weight"

Recompence is more commonly spelled "recompense" nowadays. It is the same as reward.

A loon is a foolish or silly person. We can think of a "loony", a crazy or silly person, someone who does not think or see things the way others do.

A rill is, by definition, a small stream or brook. There is not much we can add here.

Finally, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. We commonly refer to it by "meter" or simply "rhythm", depending on what we mean.
