ASSONANCE VS. ALLITERATION

Assonance-
The similarity in sound between two syllables that are close together, created by the same vowels but different consonants e.g. "back" and "hat", or by the same consonants and different vowels e.g. "hit" and "hat".


Alliteration-
The repetition of usually initial consonant sounds in two or more neighboring words or syllables.
e.g. as wild and woolly, threatening throngs,round the rugged rocks the ragged rascal ran" uses alliteration and so on.
