His own parents, he that had father'd him, and she that had conceiv'd him in her womb, and birth'd him, they gave this child more of themselves than that; they gave him afterward every day—they became part of him. this excerpt from "there was a child went forth" contains an example of which of the following? 1. connotative language 2. free verse 3.iambic pentameter 4.rhyme scheme

2. Free Verse

Poetry that uses free verse does not have any sort of standard meter or rhyme scheme. If you look at this passage, the first line has 4 syllables, the second has 19, the third has 10, and the fourth has 15. Technically the second and fourth lines "rhyme" (although it's just repetition of the same word, not a straightforward rhyme), but there is not enough pattern in the number of syllables or the meter to create a musical feeling.
