Match each description to the correct poetic form.

Elegy:

a poem written to pay tribute to someone who died, sometimes consists of three stages: lament, praise, and consolation. 

ode:  
a poem originally written to be sung, written to pay tribute to someone who is dead. 


a elegy, like a wake. is more of a somber and sad way of remembreance. a ode is like a "yeah, that guy was awesome! " type of poem or song. 

for context, "john brown's body" is an ode. while "on my first son" is an elegy. 

good luck!

Cis correct.
