Polyptoton

those of the same root may take different routes

I think I hear a herald of angels, said Polyptoton, former member of their lot. A lot of them claim there’s no such thing as nothingness, but there’s something they forgot. So pardon me for interrupting their decent choir of final descent. Lest they repent, there is no pardon from no where there is no assent.

( Polyptoton: words of the same root repeated in different ways. )
