Question

Which lines in this excerpt from Elizabeth Bishop's "The Fish" use assonance?
He was speckled with barnacles,
fine rosettes of lime,
and infested
with tiny white sea-lice,
and underneath two or three
rags of green weed hung down.
While his gills were breathing in
the terrible oxygen
--the frightening gills,
fresh and crisp with blood, that can cut so badly„
I thought of the coarse white flesh
packed in like feathers,
the big bones and the little bones,

Answer 1

I'd say that the lines in this excerpt from Elizabeth Bishop's "The Fish" that use assonance are "... with tiny white sea-lice," because is tiny white lice there is a repetition of the vowel i.
Assonance is the repetition of the same vowel in neighboring words.

Answer 2

Answer:

fine rosettes of lime,
