Question

i need examples of Assonance, Consonance, Hyperbole, Understatement, Imagery, Personification, End rhyme, Internal rhyme, Repetition, Metaphor, and a Simile in “The Cremation of Sam McGee” i need 1 each

Answer 1

Answer:

Simile: “but the land of gold seemed to hold him like a spell”
Metaphor: speaker says a promise made is a debt unpaid. Here, the poet uses a metaphor. He compares a promise to unpaid debt.

Personification: It seemed to the speaker as if the furnace roared

Repetition: Now Sam McGee was from Tennessee, where the cotton blooms and blows. Why he left his home is the south to roam 'round the Pole, God only knows.

End rhyme: *see repetition

Imagery: I cremated Sam McGee

Hyperbole: The line, “But the queerest they ever did see,” contains hyperbole.

Assonance: Howled out their woes to the homeless snows— O God! how I loathed the thing

Consonance: Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee, it’s the first time I’ve been warm

Internal rhyme: The Northern Lights have seen queer sights”. The words “lights” and “sights” rhyme with each other.

I could not find an understatement in the poem, sorry.
