by thomas gray
1 the curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
2 the lowing herd wind slowly o'er the lea
3 the plowman homeward plods his weary way,
4 and leaves the world to darkness and to me.
5 now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight,
6 and all the air a solemn stillness holds,
7 save where the beetle wheels his droning flight,
8 and drowsy tinklings lull the distant folds;

A.  heroic quatrain

Explanation:

The section of this poem presents a group of four lines that follows the iambic pentameter that alternates rhymes. This is a strong characteristic of heroic quatrain.

A heroic quatrain, also called a heroic stanza, is a group of four lines that follows iambic pentameter that alternately rhymes. Iambic pentameter is how a line in poetry is built in which it has five beats with one short syllable followed by a long syllable to create a rhythm. These short and long syllables alternate in an ABAB fashion. William Shakespeare and John Dryden are two famous authors who used heroic quatrain in their literature. In simple terms, the heroic quatrain style unconsciously provides a rhythm for the reader to read a poem.
