Consider the four‑line excerpt: "When night descends, the stars align / In whispered verses, time resigns / The moon, a lantern, softly glows / While shadows dance in silent rows." (i) Identify the poetic form, including rhyme scheme and meter. (ii) Discuss how the identified meter enhances the poem's contemplative mood.
