Rhetorical Devices Rhetorical devices are structures within language that appeal to readers and communicate ideas. In other words, rhetorical devices make you want to listen.

Rhetorical Devices Rhetorical Questions are questions to which no answers are expected. ex. “But when shall we grow stronger?” Antithesis expresses contrasting ideas in parallel grammatical structures. ex. “Give me liberty, or give me death.” Repetition is the recurrence of words, phrases, or lines. ex. “Let it come! I repeat sir, let it come!”

Rhetorical Devices Parallelism is a kind of repetition in which words or phrases in the same grammatical form connect ideas. Ex. “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet?” Biblical Allusions are references to events, figures, or phrases from the Bible. In this text, they have the rhetorical appeal of shared beliefs.

Varying Sentence Types Declarative: expresses a statement of fact, desire, intent, or feeling and ends with a period. “This is no time for ceremony” (Henry ln. 6). Interrogative: asks a question and ends with a question mark. “Shall we try argument?” (Henry ln. 27-28). Imperative: gives advice or instructions or that expresses a request or command. “Trust not, sir” (Henry ln. 27-28). Exclamatory: Expresses strong emotions and always ends with an exclamation point. “I repeat it, sir, we must fight!” (Henry ln. 60).
