But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends----

It gives a lovely light!

C) AABB
I think it is ABAB
The correct answer is AABB. The ending words that rhyme are "ends" and "friends". The second and fourth lines both end with a semicolon instead of a rhyme, which means that the poem follows an AABB rhyme scheme.
