A sophisticated person like yourself, Mobs, may perhaps pronounce 'again' to rhyme with 'rain', but most of us plebs pronounce it to rhyme with 'pen' - and the Bard himself used the very same rhyme in Sonnet 79. So as far as I'm concerned, 'friends' is as good a half-rhyme for 'again' as 'strong' is for 'gone' - and as good a rhyme as many others which appear on this thread. |

What!
