  rhyme   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Rhyme serves to unify and distinguish divisions of a poem, because it is likely that the rhyme sounds followed in one stanza—the Spencerian for instance—will be changed when the next stanza is started, although the rhyme scheme remains the same.
The types of rhyme are classified according to two schemes: (1) the position of the rhymes in the line, and (2) the number of syllables involved.
Double rhyme is another name for feminine rhyme; (3) triple rhyme, in which the rhyming stressed syllable is followed by two undifferentiated unstressed syllables, as in "glorious" and "victorious." Triple rhyme...is usually reserved for humourous, satirical verse...

 Guide to Verse Forms - Rhyme
Another form of internal rhyme has a word in the middle of one line rhyming with the the word at the end of a different line; this is sometimes called cross rhyme - which is liable to be confused with cross-rhyme, a particular kind of 4-line stanza.
One particular form of cross rhyme, in which the word at the end of one line rhymes with a line in the middle of the next, is common in Irish poetry, where it is known as aicill rhyme.
Rhyming a word in the middle of one line with a word in the middle of another is called interlaced rhyme.

 Rhyme Information
In English, the spelling "rhyme" came to be adopted at the beginning of the Modern English period in order to reflect the Greek original, in the same way that a b was added to the words "dette" and "doute" to reflect the original Latin debitum and dubitum.
One of the earliest rhyming poems in English is The Rhyming Poem.
Rhyme was unknown in Latin poetry until it was introduced under the influence of local vernacular traditions in the early Middle Ages.

 Wordcarvers: Types of Rhyme
Thus "tenacity" and "mendacity" rhyme, but not "jaundice" and "John does," or "tomboy" and "calm bay." The rhyme scheme is usually the pattern of end-rhymes in a stanza, each rhyme being encoded by a letter of the alphabet from a onwards.
Broken rhyme: rhyming with an initial or medial syllable of a word that is split between two lines with a hyphen.
Internal rhyme: rhymes between a word within a line, often from a medial position (termed also leonine) and one at the end of the line.

 LitGloss - R 
Rhyme is predominantly a function of sound rather than spelling; thus, words that end with the same vowel sounds rhyme, for instance, day, prey, bouquet, weigh, and words with the same consonant ending rhyme, for instance vain, feign, rein, lane.
Rhyme schemes are mapped out by noting patterns of rhyme with small letters: the first rhyme sound is designated a, the second becomes b, the third c, and so on.
Internal rhyme places at least one of the rhymed words within the line, as in "Dividing and gliding and sliding" or "In mist or cloud, on mast or shroud.

 Usman Mobin's Very Quick Guide to Poetry
In the case where we have a group of rhymed triplet stanzas, it is possible to have interlocking rhymes, which would be manifested by, say, a rhyming pattern of (1, 2, 1; 2, 3, 2; 3, 4, 3; 4, 5, 4; 5, 5).
This particular interlocking rhyme where the unrhymed second verse of each triplet becomes the rhymed first and third verses of the next triplet, with the final rhymed couplet consisting of the unrhymed middle verse of the last triplet, is an Italian stanza form referred to as terza rima.
It is not permitted to vary the rhyme as (1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 3, 1) or (1, 2, 2, 1, 3, 4, 4, 3) for example.

Rhyme: When the final vowel and consonant sounds of words are the same (i.e., mouse/house, low/toe).
These words.imply that the grandmother "wore" the wisdom of the tribe in her very being, that wisdom was intrinsic in her.
Assonance: Partial rhyme, when the internal vowel sounds of words are the same (i.e., cow/bound/mouse).

 Kalliope Workshop: Rhyme Time
Variations in rhyme are differences in the types of sound, and in the pattern, or position.
"Internal rhyme" is the echo of words within a line: "The sails at noon left off their tune".
Internal rhyme may be varied by rhyming the first or last word of a line with a word inside the next line.

So canonical rhyme is defined partly in terms of phonemic parallelism in the final syllable of the rhyming words and partly in terms of position in the poetic line.
Rhymes between words which are not in line-final position (but these are less common and are usually known by the marked term 'internal rhyme'), and
This pattern of internal rhyme is also repeated in the other seven refrains, adding to the complexity of the pattern which Porter manages to adhere to.

 MPT: Knowing Poe: Rhyme Scheme Mini-Lesson
There are two internal rhyme schemes used in “The Raven.” Let's look at stanza 10 of the poem to see what an internal rhyme scheme is and how Poe uses it to make the poem flow.
Because the rhymes still occur inside the lines – not among words at the end of each line – this is still considered an internal rhyme scheme.
This tension is magnified by the external rhyme scheme.

 Versification
Rhyme is established between two or more words or phrases in respect to the vowel of the last accented syllable and to all the sounds following this vowel.
Similarly, internal rhyme–that is, rhyme partly or wholly within the line–is not a regular constituent; it is used to vary the pattern of groups of lines.
Finally, rhyme, which was discussed as part of the theoretical pattern of English verse, is of extreme importance in contributing to the sound quality of poetry.

RHYME, INTERNAL RHYME : Rhyme is the repetition of the same phonetic sound at the end of two or more lines.
Rhymes of words of one syllable are called single / masculine :(eg- bent- sent, hoard- board,)etc.
Rhymes of words of two syllables are called double / feminine :(eg: measures- pleasures, enjoy- destroy).

 Rhyme Scheme
One case to notice is in the second stanza, where "peonies" [pronounced "pee-oh-neez"] is used to rhyme with "eyes." This is an instance of what is called slant rhyme (sometimes also called eye rhyme), where the two words do not rhyme perfectly (usually the discrepancy is in the vowel sound).
Internal rhyme happens when two words in a poem rhyme, but at least one is not located at the end of a line.
Rhyme schemes, especially ones that repeat (as this one does), are often written in the following form: a b a b c d e c d e.

 Poetry Knowledge Zone - Class 17 : The Burmese Climbing Rhyme by Smitha Chakravarthula
Though ending rhyme is more common in English poetry, most Asian poetry use a more intricate system of internal rhyming, which though tough and tricky to implement makes more interesting reading and poses more of a challenge to the writer.
The general rule is that each rhyme occurs three times - first at the end of an 8-syllable line, then at the end of the next 6-syllable line, and finally as the sixth syllable of the next 8-syllable line e.g.
The rhyme is on the fourth syllable of the first line, the third syllable of the second line, and the second syllable of the third line."

 Comic Theory 101: Seeing Rhymes | Comixpedia
The rhyming aspects of verbal units that puts rhythmic things upfront and and meaning secondary is merely a matter of it being a symbolic relationship of form and meaning.
Rhyme is not a specific effect in poetry, or merely a rhythmic element, but rather an integral continuum or spectrum of like and unlike sounds.
Rhyme is a factor of unity and emphasis more strongly than it is an effect of repetition. Every word in a poem rhymes with every other word, every line rhymes with every other line.

Rhyme is the matching of sounds in two or more words, beginning with the stressed vowels and including all subsequent sounds in the words.
Since most rhyme is end rhyme, we usually don’t use this term unless we wish to contrast a given end rhyme with internal rhyme.
Internal rhyme is not marked in a rhyme scheme, and the mere sequence of letters doesn’t distinguish between true rhyme and slant rhyme or between masculine and feminine rhymes.

 No rhyme or reason | Review | Guardian Unlimited Books
Poets use rhyme all the time: half-rhyme, internal rhyme, broken rhyme, leonine rhyme, chain rhyme, random rhyme and vowels echoing intimately from inside one line across to the next.
Rhyme should be used "sparingly, lest it offend the eare with tedious affectation".
Rhyme acts on poets as "a constraint to express many things otherwise, and for the most part worse, than else they would have exprest them".

Rhyme is perhaps the most recognizable convention of poetry, but its function is often overlooked.
Rhyme helps to unify a poem; it also repeats a sound that links one concept to another, thus helping to determine the structure of a poem.
There are varieties of rhyme: internal rhyme functions within a line of poetry, for example, while the more common end rhyme occurs at the end of the line and at the end of some other line, usually within the same stanza if not in subsequent lines.

Rhyme in which the ending of words are spelled alike; in most instances were pronounced alike.
Rhyme in which the vowels are either approximate or different; and occasionally, even the rhymed consonants are similar rather than identical.
Rhyme in which the final accented vowels of the rhyming words and all succeeding sounds are identical while preceding sounds are different.

 MPT: Knowing Poe: Rhyme Scheme Mini-Lesson
A rhyme scheme is the pattern of sounds that stay the same throughout the entire poem.
But the positions stay the same: if the words are rhymed at the ends of lines 1 and 2 in the first stanza, they are going to be rhymed at that same position in the next stanza.
So a rhyme scheme is where the rhymes occur in a stanza, not what words are rhymed.

 Glossary of Rhymes
It may be tempting, simply because the terms are listed here, to get overly scrupulous about fine distinctions between, for example, "identical" and "rich" rhyme, or "broken" as opposed to "linked" rhyme--but these are distinctions that rarely find practical sanction in critical usage and are often much more useful for the writer.

Rhyme is the similarity in sound of the ends of words: the last stressed syllable and the following unstressed syllables (if any).
When rhyming verses are arranged into stanzas, we can identify the rhyme scheme by assigning letters each rhyme, beginning with a and proceeding through the alphabet.
Most rhymes appear at the end of lines, but internal rhyme is the appearance of similar sounds somewhere in the middle of a verse.

 Bernard of Morlaix - METRE AND RHYME
Internal rhymes are consistently used throughout all of its 1399 lines, and stress begins to become as important as quantity in reading the poem.
There were several attempts at Englishing the metre and rhyme of small parts of the first book of the poem in the wake of its popularisation as an English hymn by J.M. Neale in the 1860's.
But the metre and rhyme scheme of the rhythmi are different from those of the epilogue, and both are different from those of the De contemptu mundi.

 repetition (poetic term)
The repetition of similar endings of words or even of identical syllables (rime riche) constitutes rhyme, used generally to bind lines together into larger units or to set up relationships within the same line (internal rhyme).
Such repetition, as a tour de force, may be the center of interest in a poem, as Southey's "The Cataract of Lodore" and Belloc's "Tarantella," or may play a large part in establishing the mood of a poem, as in Byron's Don Juan.
Such a poem as G. Hopkins' "The Leaden Echo" will illustrate abundantly how these "supplemental" devices of internal rhyme, alliteration, and assonance may be made into the chief features of the poetic line to support an unconventional system of metrics.

 Why Roger Waters' Lyrics Are Better Than David Gilmour's
Internal rhyme occurs within the lines, whereas terminal rhymes fall at the end of the lines.
A slant rhyme is one that rhymes on the vowels or consonants, whereas an identical rhyme is just that: two words that sound alike.
In this verse, "visions" and"prisoner" are slant rhymes, as are "raver" and "painter," "piper" and "shine." Though I would be inclined to break this single line into two or four, the printed lyrics indicate that this is a single line, so these rhymes are also internal.

 Austin Clarke
Clarke recognised that assonance was the key to rhyme and that Gaelic poetry relied on assonance for much of its aural effect.
Clarke uses alliteration to create internal rhyme involving the words "hazes", "her", "honey" and "hive".
Clarke relies heavily on both assonance (which he considered to be the chief element of rhyme) and consonance to create a series of sound patterns which give an aural quality to his poetry.
