But, I mean it... looking back, I don't think I would have done well in the court of Elizabeth I. I don't know the Elizabethan dances, I don't speak Latin, I don't go to church. Rhyming couplets are not my strong suit.
A couplet is a pair of lines of metre in poetry. Couplets usually comprise two lines that rhyme and have the same metre. A couplet may be formal (closed) or run-on (open). In a formal (or closed) couplet, each of the two lines is end-stopped, implying that there is a grammatical pause at the end of a line of verse. In a run-on (or open) couplet, the meaning of the first line continues to the second.
