Each of the following lines from "Alone" contain examples of alliteration EXCEPT... A. "then something caught: a helping grain of sand." B. "the car broke free and scutterd smartly right over the road." C. "A post sot up and cracked - a sharp clang." D. "I sat back in my seat-belt and saw someone coming."

OpenStudy (anonymous):
