Concetti Chiave
- Rhyme involves the identity of sound in the final syllables of words, typically at line endings, creating a pattern known as rhyme scheme.
- Internal rhyme occurs when two rhyming words appear within the same line, contributing to the poem's musical quality.
- Rhythm is created by the arrangement of stressed and unstressed syllables, providing a sense of movement and reinforcing meaning.
- Alliteration and assonance involve the repetition of sounds; alliteration uses consonant sounds at the beginning of words, while assonance repeats vowel sounds with different end consonants.
- Enjambment is a technique where a sentence or phrase runs over from one line to the next, affecting rhythm and emphasizing ideas.

Identifying sound in poetry
The most frequent sound device are:
Identify of sound in the final syllables of words.
It usually occurs at line endings.
Ex:
Nature’s first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden to grief,
So dawn to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
(Robert Frost, Nothing Gold can stay, 1923)
Internal rhyme and rhyme scheme
When two rhyming words appear within the same line we have an internal rhyme.
Ex:
(Samuel Taylor Coleridge, from The rhyme creats a second pattern called rhyme scheme, usually expressed by the letters of the alphabet.
Jellicle Cats are black and white, a
Jellicle Cats are rather small; b
Jellical Cats are merry and bright, a
And pleasant to hear when they caterwaul, b
Jellicle Cats have cheerful faces, c
Jellicle Ctas have bright black eyes; d
They like to practice their airs and graces c
And wait for the jellicle Moon to rise. d
The beat and rhythm in poetry
(from The beat, or rather internal pulse, created by the arrangement of stressed and unstressed syllables, whose combination gives a particular sense of movement and is meant to appeal to the ear as well as to reinforce meaning.
Ex:
Tyger, tyger, burning bright
In the forest of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
Alliteration and assonance
(Willam Blake, from Repetition of the same consonant sound at the beginning of words that are next or close to each other.
Ex:
(William Shakespeare, from Repetition of a vowel sound with a different end consonant.
Ex:
On either side the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye
Consonance and onomatopoeia
(Alfred Tennyson, from Repetition of the end consonant with different vowel sound.
Ex:
The grass is happy
To open her scents, like a dress through the country
(Ted Hughes, from
Onomatopeia
Creation and use of words which imitate the sound that they describe.
Ex:
O Jesus Christ! I’m hit’ he said and said.
Whether he vainly cursed, or prayed indeed,
The Bullets chirped – In vain! Vain! Vain!
Machine-guns chucked, “Tut-tut! Tut-tut!”
Repetition as a unifying device
(Wilfred Owen, A unifying device between sound and meaning is repetition. It may involve sounds, syllables, words, phrases, stanzas, or feature of language. Basically, it is used to emphasize ideas. But it also contributes to the patterning of a literary work and to its musical effects.
(Shakespeare, from Alone, alone, all all alone,
Alone on the wide wide Sea
Enjambment and its effects
(Samuel Taylor Coleridge, from Another important device, which involves rhythm, meaning and syntax. It consists in the grammatical continuation from one line to the next. It affects rhythm because it can create an idea of tension and speed in progress. But it can also serve to highlight, or link, certain words, thus emphasizing ideas or creating an association of consepts.
I think I know enough of hate
To say hat for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
(Robert Frost, from Fire and Ice)
