Which excerpt from Carl Sandburg’s "The Wedding Procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle and Who Was in It" includes repetition and alliteration? A. The last of all in the wedding procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle were the Sleepyheads. They were smiling and glad to be marching but their heads were slimpsing down and their smiles were half fading away and their eyes were half shut or a little more than half shut. B. They marched with big bowls of soup in front of them and big spoons for eating the soup. They whistled and chuzzled and snozzled the soup and the noise they made could be heard far up at the head of the procession where the Spoon Lickers were marching. C. Next came the Tin Pan Bangers. Some had dishpans, some had frying pans, some had potato peeling pans. All the pans were tin with tight tin bottoms. And the Tin Pan Bangers banged with knives and forks and iron and wooden bangers on the bottoms of the tin pans. D. There was a wedding when the Rag Doll married the Broom Handle. It was a grand wedding with one of the grandest processions ever seen at a rag doll wedding. And we are sure no broom handle ever had a grander wedding procession when he got married.

C. Next came the Tin Pan Bangers. Some had dishpans, some had frying pans, some had potato peeling pans. All the pans were tin with tight tin bottoms. And the Tin Pan Bangers banged with knives and forks and iron and wooden bangers on the bottoms of the tin pans.

Explanation:

Repetition is a literary device that has the same sound or words being repeated in succession or in close gaps in a sentence. In it, the same words or phrases are repeated more than once in order to reemphasize the words or phrases.

Alliteration is the repetition of the same letter or sound of a word in close consequence in a sentence. It is also more commonly known as head rhyme or initial rhyme for the very first consonant letter or the sound of the word is repeated in the same sentence in sequence or close quarters.

From the given passages from The Wedding Procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle and Who Was in It by Carl Sandburg, repetition and alliteration can be found in the third passage. This is because the passage contains words such as "such as" which is repeated thrice which shows it is a repetition. And alliteration is seen in the words "potato peeling pans", "tin with tight tin" and "bangers on the bottom".

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
