ALLITERATION: It's really catchy. Catchy things are memorable (and sometimes beautiful). All this helps the message of the text hit harder.
"...the dark and desolate valley..."
LISTING: Can be used to show breadth (when listing nouns) or depth (when listing adjectives). It can be used to create a sense of grandeur, exhaustion, or even expertise...depends on the context!
"Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our Northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed."
"But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt."
METAPHOR: Describing one thing in terms of another, a form of comparison. Good for explaining abstract concepts. Can be beautiful and memorable. Can have connotations.
SIMILE: A metaphor with commitment issues. A softer form of comparison. Does everything a metaphor does.
"Life's like a road that you travel on..."
???
"Who is here so vile that will not love his country?"
IMPERATIVE (CALL TO ACTION): ???
"If any, speak, for him have I offended."
REPETITION: Creates emphasis and impact. Makes key phrases and ideas stick in an audience's mind. Convinces people that you mean business!
"No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied..."
