Why burberry rhymes the way it does

That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century.

Burberry reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
