does this sentence have an example of alliteration, consonance or assonance? Got washed in the water, washed in the blood

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

I would say alliteration. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you tell me why?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. In this case, "washed" is the occurrence of the same letter or sound.

how about in these lines : Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face Got joy in my heart, angels on my side Thank God almighty, I saw the light Gonna look ahead, no turning back Live every day, give it all that I have Trust in someone bigger than me
