Which line in this excerpt from Amy Lowell's "Lilacs" emphasizes consonance? Lilacs, False blue, White, Purple, Color of lilac, Heart-leaves of lilac all over New England, Roots of lilac under all the soil of New England, Lilac in me because I am New England, Because my roots are in it, Because my leaves are of it, Because my flowers are for it, Because it is my country And I speak to it of itself And sing of it with my own voice Since certainly it is mine.

Convert:

Consonance: "agreement or compatibility between opinions or actions." Based on this what would you think it'd be?

Nana14:

and sind it with my own voice

Nana14:

sing*

Convert:

Well consonance means 2 things that kind of back up each other so to say, so I'll give you a hint. It says New England 3 times in the passage.

Nana14:

ok thanks
