○ repetition
○ alliteration
○ refrain
○ rhyme
Brief Explanations
- Repetition: Involves repeating a word/phrase, but here the repeated part ("I long to hear you") is more of a refrain.
- Alliteration: Is the repetition of initial consonant sounds, not seen here (e.g., "shenandoah" and others don't have repeated initial sounds).
- Refrain: A repeated line or phrase in a song/verse, like "I long to hear you" and "Away" - related phrases repeated here, typical of a refrain in a folk song like Shenandoah.
- Rhyme: Requires words with similar ending sounds; the lines don't show consistent rhyming (e.g., "you" and "river" don't rhyme, "you" and "away" don't, etc.).
