Leaning left and limping light - Alliteration

Alliteration is a stylistic device (also called a literary or poetic device) in which a series of words begin with the same consonant sound. In this case, we have the L sound (Leaning, Left, Limping, Light). This device is common in tongue twisters but is also used as an emphasis when the writer or speaker wants to point something out. Another example of alliteration is: She sells seashells by the sea-shore.

Silently, the night took flight - Internal rhyme

Three kinds of internal rhyme (also called middle rhyme) exist:

Here's an example from Edgar Allen Poe's "Raven":

… Eagerly I wished the morrow; – vainly I had sought to borrow

From my books surcease of sorrow – sorrow for the lost Lenore…

The story went on and on - Repetition

Repetition refers to the repetition of the same words or phrases a few times. This makes the point the writer or speaker is making more emphasized and memorable. There are many different types of repetition. For example, anaphora is the repetition of words at the start of clauses or verses (My life is my purpose. My life is my goal.), and epiphora is the repetition of the same word at the end of each clause (I want pizza, he wants pizza, we all want pizza!)

So strange, the frail orange in the basket - Assonance

Assonance is a stylistic device in which two or more words in series contain the same vowel sound but start with different consonants. It is used to emphasize the meanings of words and set the mood. In our case, this is what assonance looks like: So strange, the frail orange in the basket. Here's another example from Poe's heavily onomatopoeic poem "The Bells": Hear the mellow wedding bells.

For a simple walk, An elaborate talk - End rhyme

End rhyme (also known as tail rhyme) is the most common type of rhyming pattern used in poems and songs. The last syllables or words in two or more lines rhyme with each other. This type of rhyme gives musical effect to songs and poems. Here's an example from Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" of three lines in a verse rhyming this way:

Whose woods these are I think I know,

His house is in the village, though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

We braved the cold, one and all

and fell the skill in our very souls - Slant rhyme

Slant rhyme (also called imperfect rhyme, near rhyme, or oblique rhyme) is a type of rhyme where words sound similar, but do not have identical sounds. Most slant rhymes are formed by words with identical consonants and different vowels (consonance - cut : mat, Eden : dawn), or the other way around (assonance - crate : braid, hat : bad). Thanks to slant rhymes, writers can be more creative with word choice.

Silently, the night took flight - Internal rhyme

Three kinds of internal rhyme (also called middle rhyme) exist:

Two or more rhyming words appear within the same line  of a verse

Two or more rhyming words occur in the middle of two separate lines (rarely in more)

A word at the end of a line rhymes with one or more in the middle of the next line

Here's an example from Edgar Allen Poe's "Raven":

… Eagerly I wished the morrow; – vainly I had sought to borrow

From my books surcease of sorrow – sorrow for the lost Lenore…
