Explanation:

In the poetry, the word rhyme refers to the repetition of the same sound or of similar sounds in two or more words, especially in the final syllable of these words and usually in the last word of verses. In the case of rhyme schemes, these are the patterns in terms of rhyme a poem can have whether this scheme is repeated in a stanza or in all the stanzas that composed a poem.

Even though there are multiple rhyme schemes one of the most common ones is the ABAB scheme in which in a stanza of four verse the last word of the first verse rhymes with the last word of the third verse and the last word of the second verse rhymes with the one of the fourth verse. This type of scheme can be seen in the stanza of the poem "Song" by John Donne as the word of the first verse "heart" rhymes with the word "part" of the verse number three and the word of the second verse "ill" rhymes with the one of the fourth verse "fulfill". Thus, it can be concluded the statement that is true about the excerpt from "Song" by John Donne is that this verse contains the ABAB rhyme scheme.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry.
