rhymed
Paired sound patterns
Rhymed describes words or lines that end with matching sounds, or verse composed in that manner: rhymed couplets, a rhymed translation of the Iliad.
Poetry that rhymes is rhymed poetry, as opposed to blank verse or free verse.
The word also serves as the past tense of rhyme: She rhymed "moon" with "June".
