In Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem "The Courage That My Mother Had," two sound devices used are alliteration and rhyme. Alliteration is evident in the phrase "Rock from New England quarried," where the repetition of the 'r' sound creates a rhythmic effect. Rhyme is present in the lines "The golden brooch my mother wore / She left behind for me to wear," where the words "wore" and "wear" rhyme, adding a musical quality to the poem.
