The lines from "If" by Rudyard Kipling that best exemplify repetition are:
- "Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,"
- "Or being hated don’t give way to hating,"
In these lines, the repetition of the structure "Or being..." emphasizes the conditional nature of the advice being given, creating a rhythmic and impactful quality to the poem. Additionally, the use of "If you can..." in other sections of the poem serves a similar purpose, reinforcing the conditions under which the ideals of the poem may be achieved.
