Read the stanza below. What type of rhyme does it contain? "Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macivity,

he's broken every human law, he breask the law of gravity,

his powers of levitation would make a fakir stare,

and when you reach the scene of crime - Macavitys not there!

You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air-

but I tell you once and once again, Macivitys not there!
