| | Assonance |
| | Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds for a particular poetic effect. | | | The repetition of vowel sounds might contribute to the musical quality of the poem and might also enhance the meaning of an expression. | | | In this example, assonance is used to echo vowel sounds between lines: the "i" of "bird" and "disturbed" are repeated, as are the sounds of the "ea" combination in "beast" and "peace." |

| | The utterances of the soothsayers which were rhythmic but not in a fixed metre, and which were assonanced but not always exactly rhymed, are said to be in saj sajÿ, which is thus distinct from both poetry and prose. | | | With an assonance depending thus upon grammatical endings there may occasionally be doubt as to whether it was really intended. | | | What one finds rather is assonance, in which short inflectional vowels at the end of a verse are disregarded, and for the rest, the vowels, particularly their length, and the fall of the accent, that is the form of the end-word of the verse, are of more importance than the consonants. |

| | However, in more literary works the poet may divide the poem into stanzas, often of four lines each. | | | Originally, assonance was found at the end of long lines of poetry, and the line had a pause or break in the middle of it called a caesura (cesura). | | | If assonance is used in a poem instead of perfect rhyme, frequently there are no stanzas at all. |

| | The function of assonance is frequently the same as end rhyme or alliteration: All serve to give a sense of continuity or fluidity to the verse. | | | Assonance occurs when the vowel sound within a word matches the same sound in a nearby word, but the surrounding consonant sounds are different. | | | Like alliteration, it does not so much determine the structure or form of a poem; rather, it is more ornamental. |
