Answer 5

"And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden back."

I think the L sound in "lay" and the nearby L sound in "leaves" is an example of alliteration.

It's supposed to be the same consonant sound... that seems like it would work. It's not very obvious, but it seem to qualify.

Answer 6

thx i really dont like or understand poetry

Answer 7

Do you see it a least? It's not my favorites either...

Alliteration is like "Frank's friends are freaking over the freezing temperatures" All those "fr" sounds are the alliteration.
