Is the poem “Retort” by Paul Laurence Dunbar free verse or formal verse?

I believe it to be formal verse.

Explanation:

Formal verse is the name given to rhymed poetry that uses a strict meter. I googl ed the poem and it rhymed every other sentence and had a sort of beat to it.

Just to clarify, this is the poem I got when I searched it on Goog le:

"Thou art a fool,” said my head to my heart,

“Indeed, the greatest of fools thou art,

To be led astray by the trick of a tress,

By a smiling face or a ribbon smart;”

And my heart was in sore distress.

Then Phyllis came by, and her face was fair,

The light gleamed soft on her raven hair;

And her lips were blooming a rosy red.

Then my heart spoke out with a right bold air:

“Thou art worse than a fool, O head!”

- "is not only a luminous passive watcher in the night sky, but it is a powerful force.

it does symbolizes love,   lust   and dreaming and is seen as a power symbolic force that determines and affects human behaviors and reactions.

in the context of the question it does remain you that he events are only taking place at night and the reader of the passage of time."
