Cevap

Assonance
The extract prominently features the repetition of the long vowel sound /eɪ/ across words such as 'pale', 'day', 'fades', 'grace', 'faint', 'rays', and 'lake'. The deliberate repetition of identical or similar internal vowel sounds in close proximity is defined as assonance.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Examine the phonetic elements repeated across the poetic lines.
Identified recurring long vowel sound /eɪ/ in 'pale', 'day', 'fades', 'grace', 'faint', 'rays', and 'lake'.
Analyzing the specific phonetic repetition helps categorize the auditory technique used by the poet.
2
Match the observed sound repetition pattern with standard literary sound devices.
The repetition of internal vowel sounds across neighboring words corresponds precisely to the definition of assonance.
Distinguishing vowel sound repetition from consonant repetition ensures accurate classification.
