I think, in English:

rime pauvre: blue/true; gray/bay. The vowel is the one sound in common.

rime suffisante: taught/bought; cool/pool. The vowel and the concluding consonant are in common. Those are the two.

rime riche: pool/whirlpool; plant/implant: the initial consonant, the vowel, and the concluding consonant of the rhyme are all in common.

So t / eu / se is common in prêteuse/emprunteuse making it rime riche.
