Which best identifies a rhyming couplet?

Question 3 options:

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down today.


And I watered it in fears,
Night and morning with my tears;


Night and morning with my tears:
And I sunned it with smiles,


When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see

Respuesta :

And I watered it in fears,
Night and morning with my tears;

And I watered it in fears,

Night and morning with my tears;

A rhyming couplet is when two consecutive lines rhyme in a poem. They are called couplets because a couple is two. The words "fears" and "tears" rhyme with each other and they are consecutive, so they are rhyming couplets.  The other options are not correct because the lines do not rhyme. Grief does not rhyme with today. Tears does not rhyme with smiles. Pole does not rhyme with see.
