*Example of poetic technique assonance: Ralegh has backed the maid to a tree As Ireland is backed to England And drives inland Till all her strands are breathless. (from "Ocean's Love to Ireland" by Seamus Heaney) Explanation: Two or more words, close to one another repeat the same vowel sound; however, they start with different consonant sounds.

*Example of poetic technique consonance: I'm nobody! Who are you? Are you nobody, too? Then there 's a pair of us — don't tell! They 'd banish us, you know. (from "I’m Nobody! Who Are You?" my Emily Dickinson) Explanation: Repetitive sounds produced by consonants within a phrase or sentence.

*Example of poetic technique repetition: For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride, In her sepulchre there by the sea— In her tomb by the sounding sea. (from "Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe) Explanation: Repetition of the same words or phrases a few times, in order to make an idea more memorable and clearer.

*Example of poetic technique end rhyme: Life is but life, and death but death! Bliss is but bliss, and breath but breath! And if, indeed, I fail, At least to know the worst is sweet. Defeat means nothing but defeat, No drearier can prevail! (from "Rouge Gagne" by Emily Dickinson) Explanation: The rhyme comes at the end of two successive lines.

*Example of poetic technique internal rhyme: He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound’s the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake. (from "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost) Explanation: The rhyme occurs within a single line or a verse.
