Assonance

Def: pattern of vowel that repeat in the end of lines.

Ex: The bows glided down, and the coast
Blackened with birds took a last look
At his thrashing hair and whale-blue eye
The trodden town rang its cobbles for luck.

Sign: Alliteration and assonance is almost the same but different in the beginning and the ending.
