Choose the poem that uses onomatopoeia.Now sweet and clear, and faint and low,The airy tinklings come and go,Like chimings from some far-off tower,Or patterings of an April shower.Leave the lovely words unsaid;For another thought is fledFrom my dream-entangled mind.Bird of passion, unenshrined.

Choose the poem that uses onomatopoeia.Out in the sky the great dark clouds are massing;I look far out into the pregnant night,Where I can hear a solemn booming gunAnd catch the gleaming of a random light.Pack clouds away, and welcome day,With night we banish sorrow;Sweet air, blow soft; mount, lark, aloft,To give my love good morrow.

Choose the poem that uses alliteration.Snug in my easy chair,I stirred the fire to flame.Fantastically fairThe flickering fancies came.When the cold dawn stood above the house-tops,Too late I remembered the cryIn the night of a wild bird flyingThrough the rain-filled sky.
