  5. Imagery • “Among the green leaves as they shake” • “Far down within some shadowy lake,…” • Imagery is used to visualize the forest-like setting.

  6. Hyperbole • “To lisp my very earliest word” • “So shake the very Heaven on high” • “Very” is used to exaggerate his “earliest word” and “Heaven on high.”

  7. Alliteration • “while in the wild wood I did lie” • “With tumult as they thunder by” The repetition of the “w” in the first line. The repetition of the “th” in the second line

  8. Consonance • “Romance, who loves to nod and sing” • “To lisp my very earliest word” Consonance of the “n” sound in the first line. Consonance of the “r” in the second line

  9. Assonance • “That little time with lyre and rhyme” • “While in the wild I did lie” • Assonance of the vowel sound “i” in this line.

  10. Personification • “ Romance, who loves to nod and sing” • “ My heart would feel to be a crime unless it trembles with the strings.” In these lines “Romance” and “My heart” are being personified.
