How to work with this sta­ti­on

This sta­ti­on fo­cu­ses on the struc­tu­re, rhyme, and rhythm of the poem. If you feel con­fi­dent to ans­wer the main task, you un­der­stand the the­mes and per­spec­ti­ves well enough to move on to ano­ther sta­ti­on. If you are not sure whe­ther you have re­ached the cor­rect con­clu­si­ons, you can take a look at the cheat sheet to com­pa­re your ans­wers.
