Read the poem, and then answer the questions. Which words best describe the rhythm of the poem?
Two doves upon the selfsame branch,
Two lilies on a single stem,
Two butterflies upon one flower:-
O happy they who look on them.
Who look upon them hand in hand
Flushed in the rosy summer light;
Who look upon them hand in hand
And never give a thought to night.

What does the poet emphasize by rhyming light and
night in the last stanza?
— "Song,"
Christina Rossetti
