Question

Read the excerpt from “Sea Fever” by John Masefield.

And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick’s over.

Which sound device is most notable in this excerpt?

alliteration
assonance
onomatopoeia
rhyme

Answer 1

The sound device used in the sentence is assonance.

We can arrive at this answer because:

• Assonance is a figure of speech that allows the repetition of vocal sounds in a line, that is, the repetition of vowel sounds.
• In the sentence "And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over," we can see the repetition of the vocal sound "ee".

This sound can be seen in the words "sleep," "sweet," and "dream."
