Why victorious rhymes the way it does
Pull victorious apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with the centred /ษ/ (/ษ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close trails off into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 5 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 130, assonance 7,958, and consonance 101. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With victorious, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
