What is the difference between a rime and a rhyme?

Answer 1

Perhaps you meant to write "rime" and "rhyme." Actually, the first word (rime) is just an older spelling of the word most of us today call a "rhyme," and they mean the same thing-- they refer to words that have repetitive sounds-- such as may and play; or fire and tire. These rhymes are often contained in certain types of poems.

Answer 2

A rhyming couplet is two lines of a poem that have last words that rhyme. For example, these two lines of a Shakespeare Sonnet form a rhyming couplet. To keep an adjunct to remember thee

Were to import forgetfulness in me. A rhyme scheme tells which lines of a poem rhyme. For example, the rhyme scheme of the entire sonnet is noted at the end of each line: Thy gift, thy tables, are within my brain a

Full charactered with lasting memory, b

Which shall above that idle rank remain a

Beyond all date even to eternity. b

Or at the least, so long as brain and heart c

Have faculty by nature to subsist, d

Till each to razed oblivion yield his part c

Of thee, thy record never can be missed: d

That poor retention could not so much hold, e

Nor need I tallies thy dear love to score, f

Therefore to give them from me was I bold, e

To trust those tables that receive thee more: f

To keep an adjunct to remember thee g

Were to import forgetfulness in me. g
