Couplets

Definition : A pair of lines that is rhyme and it the same meter

Significance : Chinese people use couplets in New Year

Example : ...Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never write, nor no man ever loved.
