Lanham: Repetition of one word or phrase at the beginning, and of another at the end, of successive clauses, sentences, or passages; a combination of ANAPHORA and ANTISTROPHE (1). The following verses illustrate it with paradigmatic rigor:



Most true that I must fair Fidessa love,

Most true that fair Fidessa cannot love.

Most true that I do feel the pains of love,

Most true that I am captive unto love.

Most true that I deluded am with love,

Most true that I do find the sleights of love.

Most true that nothing can procure her love,

Most true that I must perish in my love.

Most true that she contemns the god of love,

Most true that he is snared with her love.
