Match the lines from “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe with the type of rhyme used.

Tiles
"Sir," said I, "or Madam, truly your forgiveness
I implore; But the fact is I was napping, and
so gently you came rapping,”
“On the morrow he will leave me, as
my hopes have flown before.” Then
the bird said, “Nevermore.”
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly
there came a tapping, As of some one
gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

B. Builds tension
Right before the Raven (death) comes "rapping" at the door.
It adds tension along with the sound words
