lliteration
The repetition of sounds makes the speech more catchy
and memorable.
In a sense we have come to our nations capital to cash
a check.
We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi
cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he
has nothing for which to vote. No, no
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live
in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of
their skin but by the content of their character.
Alliteration

vote. No, no

where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by
the content of their character.
Line ?
Assonance
We must forever conduct our struggle on the
high plane of dignity and discipline.
Line ?
Metaphor
King equates light with freedom through the speech. Here are two
examples:
This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of
Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It
came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to
the sunlit path of racial justice.
Line 5
Metaphor
In the 3rd and 4th paragraph, King plays with the
extended metaphor of extending a check.
In a sense we have come to our nations capital to
cash a check (This check metaphor continues)
Line 15
A Metaphor
With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling
discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of
brotherhood.
There are many more metaphor examples. Could you find
them all?
Line 106
Line 4
Hyperbole
And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring,
when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from
every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that
day when all of Gods children, black men and white men,
Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to
join hands and sing.
Line 141
Personification
It is obvious today that America has defaulted
on this promissory note insofar as her citizens
of color are concerned. Instead of honoring
this sacred obligation, America has given the
Negro people a bad check, a check which has
come back marked insufficient funds.
Line 21
Simile
No, no, we are not satisfied, and we
will not be satisfied until justice rolls
down like waters and righteousness
like a mighty stream.
