burthen - meaning, weight, or significance

recompence - reward

loon - a silly of foolish person

rill - a small stream

measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

Explanation:

When we read the word burthen, we notice it looks and sounds similar to "burden". That's because burthen is an archaic spelling of "burden". A burden refers to something heavy, difficult to carry around. Thus, burthen means "weight"

Recompence, nowadays more commonly spelled "recompense", is a synonym for reward.

Add an extra -y to loon, and you'll get loony. That can help you guess what it means, even if not precisely: a silly, foolish person, someone who does not see things in an ordinary manner.

Even though it is not a usual word, rill is the same as a small stream or brook.

Last but not least, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. Just like the words above, it is not commonly used nowadays. We tend to use the words "beat" or "rhythm" in this case.
