Answer:

End Rhyme

Step-by-step explanation:

As you may already know, a rhyme is a literary device that allows others to repeat identical or similar sounds in a few words throughout their literary work. This device is used to promote rhythm and musicality to the work.

An End Rhyme occurs when these sounds are established in the last syllables of the lines, as can be seen in the lines shown in the figure above, where the last syllable of the word "bough" (which is the last word of the first line) rhymes with the last dilaba of the word "rough" (which is the last word in the second line).
