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

"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.
