Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds in words that are close together in a sentence or verse. For example, “His tender heir might bear his memory” (William Shakespeare, “Sonnet 1”). The “eh” sound in “tender, ” “heir, ” “bear, ” and “memory” is an assonant sound.
