  1. Sound Devices Commonly used in poetry…

  2. Rhyme • Rhyme is the repetition of similar or identical sounds. Rhyme serves to unify a poem and to reinforce its meaning. • There are many types of rhyming schemes.

  3. End Rhyme • End rhyme is the rhyming of words at the end of lines of poetry. The rhyme scheme, or pattern of rhyme, can be charted as follows: The world is too much with us; late and soon, A Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers: B Little we see in Nature that is ours; B We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! A

  4. Internal Rhyme • A poet may rhyme a word within a line with the word that ends it. This kind of rhyme can be used to achieve emphasis or variety within a line. For example: A year has gone, as the tortoise goes, Heavy and slow; And the same rose blows, and the same sun glows, And the same brook sings of a year ago. John Greenleaf Whittier from “Telling the Bees”

  5. Assonance • Assonance is the repetition of similar vowel sounds followed by different consonant sounds in stressed syllables or words. • Example: Madeand Mail. Both of these words have the ā sound. • Example: And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side…

  6. Consonance • The close repetition of identical consonant sounds before and after different vowels.  • We go together like rammalammalamma ka dingadadinga dong • Remembered forever as shoo-bop shawhadawhaddayippidy boom da boomChangchangchangitychang shoo bop that's the way it should be …WaoooYeah

  8. Dissonance • The juxtaposition of harsh jarring sounds in one or more lines. • For example: • And, as in uffish thought he stood,The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,And burbled as it came!

  9. Euphony • Agreeable sounds that are easy to articulate. • For example: Hey hey, my myRock and roll can never dieThere's more to the pictureThan meets the eye.Hey hey, my my.
