• Note any rhyme schemes which stand out to you and discuss what the writer may besuggesting the actor by the rhyme:

When did respect first become affection?When did affection suddenly soar?What a strange and beautiful touch that I love him so much,

when I didn’t before.

Though a majority of the song involves a rhyme scheme, I found this particular rhymingsection interesting because of the two words that rhyme (‘soar’ and ‘before’). I thought itwas interesting because in the context of that phrase they are very contrasting. Myaffection soaring is unlike what was happening before, the juxtaposition of the two isvery interesting.
