  • Rhyme

Rhyme is a poetic device where the vowels at the end of lines have similar sounds. Their consonants do not have the same sounds.

The consonants after the stressed vowel sounds also sound alike. This is seen in the 'r' sound in all the boldened rhymes.

Rhyming is an important device because it helps in marking the end of lines and making the poem more melodious and memorable.

The stress used in 'more' and 'shore' occur in the last syllable, thus they are single rhymes.
