    "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth"
    Question



    "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
    And sorry I could not travel both And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth"
    The rhyme scheme of the above lines is

    A.

    ABAB

    B.

    AABB

    AAAB

    Correct option is A


    The rhyme scheme is ABAB, as the first and third lines rhyme with each other, and the second and fourth lines rhyme with each other:
    "Wood" (A) rhymes with "could" (A).
    "Both" (B) rhymes with "undergrowth" (B).
    This alternating rhyme scheme creates a rhythmic flow, adding a structured harmony to the poem.
