I think it could mean 'Is the language correlative or corresponding to the figures of the speech?'

liizzyliizz · Answer

That makes sense, in my opinion the original phrase was worded awkwardly. (Maybe it's just me though.)

anonymous · Answer

well, a consonant are letters that aren't vowels...and sometimes y.

liliakarina · Answer

There's another meaning for consonance, which is relation of equality or conformity

Well I'm not sure if that's what it is asking.. (I am doing questions for the Poem: "Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" ) and it is asking: Is the language consonant with the figures of speech?  I am not quite sure what it is asking me to do.

Well, I say it is asking you for finding a relation between the language and the speech figures
