Answer:

D. Both use rhyming couplets.​

Step-by-step explanation:

D. Both use rhyming couplets.​ Here an example of a montagu's poem to illustrate this:

Adieu ye Parks, in some obscure recess,

Where Gentle streams will weep at my Distress,

Where no false Friend will in my Greife take part,

And mourn my Ruin with a Joyfull Heart,

There let me live, in some deserted Place,

There hide in shades this lost Inglorious Face.

Ye Operas, Circles, I no more must view!

My Toilette, Patches, all the World Adieu!
