Explanation:

This is the excerpt from John Denham's poem "Cooper's Hill".

In order to answer this question, let's first define what rhyme scheme is.

Each line in a poem ends in particular sound pattern. That pattern is usually marked with letter A. Every other line in a stanza (or a poem) that ends in this same pattern will also be marked with A.

Similarly, when a different sounding pattern occurs in a stanza it will be marked with a different letter (B).

In this excerpt, two lines end in the same sounding pattern (they rhyme, stream - theme). That means they need to be marked with the same letters.
