Consonance
is from the Latin consonare, meaning “to sound together with”: from con, “with,” and sonare, “to sound”

2. Consonance
Consonance is a well-suited to the informality of modern poetry.
“first and last,” “hill and dale,” “stroke of luck,” in each of these pairs the words begin differently and have unlike vowel sounds; yet each pair “clicks” because of repeated consonant sounds, or consonance.
Plus assonance and alliteration are the trio of rhyming devices that lend music and pattern to poetry.

3. Examples of Consonance!
“A noiseless patient spider, …in measureless oceans of space.” – Whitman
“A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps. And then the lighting of the lamps.” –T.S. Elliot
In spider and space the “sp” sound is the consonance and in lamps and stamps the “mps” sound is the consonance.

4. Our Example of a Consonance
The interdicted ground, ---- There Paradise is found!
Don’t be a fool, be cool.
The bird was on the tree, trying to be free.
A consonance is basically a poem or lyrics to a song, the ends can or can’t rhyme at the end of the saying or sentence.
