What is the last word in the second line of the poem? What word in the first line rhymes with it? Can you give one reason why the poet didn't simply say, " I think i know whose woods these are"?

The word is "though". He wanted it to rhyme with the last word of the quatrain, "snow". Both words have a light wintery feel, don't you think?
