Anaphora is a rhetorical device that emphasizes a phrase through repetition. An example would be: Three times they knocked on the door, three times I heard the banging, three times they echoed out.

It is the repetition of the same word or group of words at the beginning of several consecutive sentences or verses to emphasize an image or a concept. The effect is to influence the person reading it. Famous example is from Winston Churchill : We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender.
