Chapter 1 English - the road not taken by Robert Frost - Rhyming Scheme
  • 1 answers

Gaurav Seth 5 years, 4 months ago

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,   A

And sorry I could not travel both         B

And be one traveler, long I stood         A

And looked down one as far as I could   A

To where it bent in the undergrowth;    B

Thus the rhyme scheme of the stanza is described as "ABAAB". 

All four stanzas of the poem use the same rhyme scheme, albeit with different rhyme words. The rhyme words are all the final words of the lines, and are thus known as "end rhymes". 

The rhyme scheme in Frost's poem is ABAAB; CDCCD; EFEEF; GHGGH. Frost uses a very particular rhyme scheme that is quite original. He utilizes full rhyme throughout the poem with the exception of lines 17 and 20, where he uses half rhyme.
