Answer:
A. abcb
Explanation:
Read the poem out loud, paying particular attention the the last sounds of every line. Rhyming words sometimes look alike, but it's the sound that matters.
Death pronounced: deth
me pronounced: meee
selves pronounced: selvz "elvz" and "eth" are not similar.
ty pronounced: teeee Also has "eeee" sound like line 2.
To write the scheme, answer 'Does this line's last sound rhyme with anything above it?"
If no, continue with the alphabet.
If yes, take the letter from the line it rhymes with.
Line 1 No (nothing is above it)
"a"
Line 2 No (not above)
"b"
Line 3 No
"c"
Line 4 Yes, Line 2!
"b"
The rhyming scheme is abdb.
