Ballads Based on these two poems, what are the components of a ballad?

Components of a Ballad It is a short narrative, which is usually—but not always—arranged in four-line stanzas with a distinctive and memorable meter. The usual ballad meter is a first and third line with four stresses—iambic tetrameter—and then a second and fourth with three stresses—iambic trimeter. The rhyme scheme is abab or abcb The subject matter is distinctive: almost always communal stories of lost love, supernatural happenings, or recent events. The ballad maker uses popular and local speech and dialogue often and vividly to convey the story. This is especially a feature of early ballads.
