Peroration marks the climax of a speech, delivering the final message with impact.

Speech Climax

Peroration often appeals to the audience's emotions, aiming to move or persuade.

Emotional Appeal

Peroration can employ rhetorical devices like repetition or a call-to-action for effect.

In its second sense, peroration refers to a speech using high-flown, fancy language.

A long, pompous peroration may bore or alienate an audience if overdone.

Be cautious; an overly verbose peroration can weaken the speaker's earlier valid points.
