In the limerick below, select the boxes next to all of the lines that have two beats and rhyme with each other. He ran up and down, Who seldom, if ever, stood still; In his Grandmother's gown, Which adorned that Old Man on a hill. There was an Old Man on a hill,

The order of the limerick is inverted. This is the correct sequence:

There was an Old Man on a hill, Who seldom, if ever, stood still; He ran up and down, In his Grandmother's gown, Which adorned that Old Man on a hill.

The lines which have two beats and rhyme with each other are:

He ran up and down,

In his Grandmother's gown

Explanation:

When we speak of beats in poetry, we refer to the number of stressed words or syllables inside a line. In the limerick we are analyzing here, some lines have three beats, some have two. That means some lines have three, some have two stressed words. Let's highlight those words:

There was an Old Man on a hill,

Who seldom, if ever, stood still;

He ran up and down,

In his Grandmother's gown,

Which adorned that Old Man on a hill.

We have already found our answer. The lines that have two beats are: He ran up and down, / In his Grandmother's gown. Now, let's see if they rhyme. Rhyming means the final words of each line must correspond in sound. "Down" and "gown" do have such a correspondence. Their final sound is the same.
