Which sound device is used in the first and third lines of "birches" by robert frost? when i see birches bend to left and right across the lines of straighter darker trees, i like to think some boy's been swinging them. but swinging doesn't bend them down to stay. ice-storms do that. often you must have seen them loaded with ice a sunny winter morning after a rain. … a. consonance b. alliteration c. repetition d. assonance e. onomatopoeia

The correct answer is B, the sound devide used is alliteration. Throughout the first and thirds lines, words beginning with the letter "b" are repeated: birches, bend, boy and been.

Alliteration is the repetition of initial consonant sounds in nearby stressed words or syllables. In the two lines signaled by the question, of all the sound devices mentioned, alliteration is the only one used.

B. alliteration
