I agree to an extent with what someone else said; it's A-B-C-B, but lines 1 and 3, 5 and 7 have internal rhyme. So it is A-B-C-B but also look at "fancy" and "Clancy" (l. 1), "stringing" and "singing" (l. 3), "him" and "him" (l. 5), and "splendid" and "extended" (l. 7). The internal rhyme is just as important as the end rhyme. |
