Alliteration
\Al*lit`er*a"tion\, n. [L. ad + litera letter. See
Letter.]
The repetition of the same letter at the beginning of two or
more words immediately succeeding each other, or at short
intervals; as in the following lines:
[1913 Webster]
Behemoth, biggest born of earth, upheaved
His vastness. --Milton.
[1913 Webster]
Fly o'er waste fens and windy fields. --Tennyson.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The recurrence of the same letter in accented parts of
words is also called alliteration. Anglo-Saxon poetry
is characterized by alliterative meter of this sort.
Later poets also employed it.
[1913 Webster]
In a somer seson whan soft was the sonne,
I shope me in shroudes as I a shepe were. --P.
Plowman.
[1913 Webster]
