Read this passage from Phillis Wheatley’s poem “To the King’s Most Excellent Majesty.”
Label each line with a letter to represent rhyme scheme by using the drop-down menus.

The rhyme scheme analyzed here belongs to the poem "To the King's Most Excellent Majesty," by the first African-American poet to be published, Phillis Wheatley.
Words rhyme and they have the same final sounds.
Rhyme scheme is the pattern with which rhymes happen in a poem.
The last word of the first line is always labeled A. If the second line's last word sounds the same, it is also labeled A, and so on.
When the last word of a line does not sound the same, it is labeled the next letter of the alphabet (B, C, D, etc.)
Let's check which the last words of each line in the poem we are analyzing here are and label them according to their sound:

- long A

- strong A

- sway B

- obey B

- reward C

- lord C

- past D

- last D

Therefore, the rhyme scheme is AABBCCDD. "Long" has the same final sounds as "strong". "Sway" has the same final sound as "obey", and so on.
