The right option is C. masculine rhyme

Masculine rhyme is the rhyme that usually occurs on the final syllable of two rhyming words. Masculine rhyme is easy to identify in one syllable words such as still and thee in the example given above. Masculine rhyme can also occur in multi-syllable words and in this case, the stress must be on the final syllable as well. An example is in the pair; millets and mats. The rhyme is on the final syllable of millets and the only syllable in mats.
