Slant rhyme occurs when the ending stressed syllables of a word match their consonants but are preceded by different vowel sounds.
The first set of end-rhyme pair that exhibits slant rhyme is:
C. At her low Gate
D. Upon her Mat
In this case, the consonant "t" matches but the vowels are different.
The other set of end-rhyme pair is:
E. Choose One [rhymes with]
F. Like a Stone
The strong and final "n" coincides in both verses but the preceding vowels are different.
This kind of rhyme is also known as imperfect rhyme or near rhyme. Poets use it to provide a variety of rhyming effects and a variation in tone, thus making the poem more interesting for readers.
