  1. Sound Devices

  2. Poetry has a musical quality To achieve this musical effect, poets use: rhyme rhythm sound effects

  3. Repetition What’s is purpose? • Musical effect ( quality of sound) • Emphasize theme • Establish rhythm and structure

  4. Rhyme The repetition of the sound of the stressed vowel (a,e,i,o,u) and any sounds that follow it in words that are close together.

  5. Examples : Look and Book Sat and Fat Jar and Car Blue and Clue

  6. Types of Rhyme • 1. exact ( pure) rhyme : all sounds from the stressed vowel to the end of the word are repeated. Example immersion --- conversion pleasure--- treasure sphere--- revere

  7. 2. Slantor approximate, rhyme: • some sounds are repeated, but the words are not exact echoes of each other. • Example: • regularly--- February • landing --- scanning • song --- gone

  8. 3.Eye rhyme: words that look like they should rhyme, but do not. Example: through, rough, dough

  9. Where Rhyme Occurs • End Rhyme: rhymes that occur at ends of lines. • A regular pattern of end rhyme, or rhyme scheme, defines the shape of a poem and holds it together.

  10. Use lower case letters at ends of lines to determine its rhyme scheme. • Internal Rhyme: occurs within a line. • Rhythm : musical quality based on repetition. Is it fast, lively, bouncy, jingly, slow?

  11. Sound Effects • A.Onomatopoeia: use of words that sound like what they mean. Example: Humming, Thrumming, Bang, Ouch! • B.Alliteration: repetition of the same consonant sound in several words. Usually at the beginning of words.

  12. Examples of Alliteration: Sally sells sea shells down by the sea shore

  13. C. assonance: repetition of the same vowel sound (short or long) in several words. Example: Short “I” sound: ring and silver Long “I" sound: rise and ply

  14. Consonance: • Repetition at close intervals of the middle or final consonant sounds of accentuated syllable or important words. • Example: Book, plaque, thicker the Kaa sound

  15. Take this kiss upon the brow a And, in parting from you now, a Thus much let me avow a You are not wrong, who deem b That my days have been a dream; b Yet if hope has flown away c In a night, or in a day, c In a vision, or in none, d Is it therefore the less gone? d Asll that we see or seem b Is but a dream within a dream. b -- from “ A Dream within a Dream” by Edgar Allan Poe
