Everything about Masculine Rhyme totally explained
A
masculine rhyme, in
English prosody, is a
rhyme on a single stressed
syllable at the end of a line of
poetry. This term is interchangeable with
single rhyme, and is often used contrastingly with the terms "
feminine rhyme" and "double rhyme."
In English-language poetry, especially serious verse, masculine rhymes comprise a majority of all rhymes.
John Donne's poem "Lecture Upon the Shadow" is one of many that utilise exclusively masculine rhyme:
» Stand still, and I'll read to
thee
A lecture, love, in Love's philoso
phy.
» These three hours that we've
spent
Walking here, two shadows
went » Along with us, which we ourselves pro
duced.
But now the sun is just above our
head,
» We do those shadows
tread,
And to brave clearness all things are re
duced.
