The three fundamental components of euphony in English are onomatopoeia, prosody (i.e., prose melody), and rhythm. Their joint use is best learned from the language's great poets and orators. I suggest http://bit.ly/2CMxriW and http://bit.ly/2oT6MrY for a start.
Thank you for the recommendation, will certainly peruse.
All very subtle stuff. Fascinating, but maddeningly elusive. Onomatopoeia and prosody especially. Hardly any clear rules to go by. (By the way, Somerset Maugham's discussion of the three cardinal virtues appears in his superb memoir, THE SUMMING UP. Strongly recommended.)
