I'm sorry to post yet another request up
for help, but I am researching the exploitation
of sounds in poetry. For example, the obvious
usage of alliteration, onamatopoea, rhyme, etc.

If anyone has any information (anecdotal, empirical
or otherwise) it would be much appreciated.

I am also slightly lacking in the text department,
and if anyone knows of any good references, they
would also be much appreciated.

Thank You Very Much
