    What do you call the word which starts a rhymes scheme?

    Discussion in 'Word Mechanics' started by Christopher McLaren, Aug 7, 2019.

    Hi there,

    I am not sure if I am in an appropriate forums for this but here goes:

    Does anybody know what a word would be called if it "sets up a rhyme"? So for example:

    I see the Red Sea part in front of me

    I see the desert clouds bleed above me

    I'm with the prophets on the final destiny

    We'll fight the heathens and the ghost enemy

    The word "me" at the end of the first line can't be refered to as a rhyme because it isn't a rhyme, it's a word, but it is then what sets off the chain of the other three rhymes, so what do you call that word? In this case that word is a what? I need a name for it.

    Thank you.
