Read the lines from “sea fever” by john masefield.
i must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
and all i ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
which statement best describes the use of sound devices in the lines?
both lines use alliteration as a sound device.
both lines use assonance as a sound device.
the first line contains alliteration, and the second line contains assonance.
the first line contains assonance, and the second line contains alliteration.

A) Both lines use alliteration as a sound device.

Explanation: alliteration is a literary device that consists in the repetition of the beginning sounds of consecutive words or words that are close to each other. In both the given lines from "Sea Fever" by John Masefield we can see examples of alliteration, in the first line the words "seas," "sea" and "sky" and in the second line the words "ship," "star," and "steer" all of them have the same "s" sound at the beginning.

- the mistakes that have been done in the past will repeat themselves

- you will trust all the wrong people
