a, o, for a draught of vintage! that hath been
cool'd a long age in the deep-delved earth,
tasting of flora and the country green,
dance, and provençal song, and sunburnt mirth!

(from “ode to a nightingale” by john keats)
b, the western wave was all a-flame
the day was well nigh done!
almost upon the western wave
rested the broad bright sun;
when that strange shape drove suddenly
betwixt us and the sun.

Explanation:

A) Metonymy - a literary device that not only describes a thing but also the objects associated with it. In this excerpt, metonymy is illustrated as the poet not only describes the wine but also the objects affiliated to its making.

O, for a draught of vintage! that hath been

Cool'd a long age in the deep-delved earth,

Tasting of Flora and the country green,

Dance, and Provençal song, and sunburnt mirth!

(from “Ode to a Nightingale” by John Keats)

B). Synecdoche - It refers to the figurative language where a part is used to represent the whole. In this excerpt, a wave is symbolizing the whole ocean.

The western wave was all a-flame

The day was well nigh done!

Almost upon the western wave

Rested the broad bright Sun;

When that strange shape drove suddenly

Betwixt us and the Sun.

(from “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” by Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

C). Irony - It exemplifies the distinction between the literal and implied meaning or a language that implies the opposite of what is being said. In this excerpt, the speaker is critiquing God by the words 'Thank Heaven! the crisis'.

Thank Heaven! the crisis— The danger is past, And the lingering illness Is over at last— And the fever called "Living" Is conquered at last.

(from “For Annie” by Edgar Allan Poe)

D). Symbols - In this literary device, an object is used to symbolize certain meaning as implied by the poet. Here, the sunflower is being used as a symbol.

Ah, sunflower, weary of time,

Who countest the steps of the sun;

Seeking after that sweet golden clime

Where the traveller’s journey is done;

(from “Ah! Sun-flower” by William Blake)
