Respuesta :

Even though it looks too obvious, the structure is made by following the traditional ballad aspects. At first, it has a plot that tells a story which was written in plane language that makes reader understand the idea with ease. Next point is that this ballad contains a question/answer format, which is usual thing for such a type. And, to conclude, the poetic structure is supported by four-line stanzas with the second and fourth lines rhyming.

an elegiac broadside

is the answer.
