“Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken, / “Doubtless,” said I, “what it utters is it’s only stock and store,” — What letters create the alliteration heard in these two lines?

Answer:

St

Step-by-step explanation:

Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter (or sound) at the beginning of closely connected words. Of the 22 words in this sentence, 4 of them start with "st," as to "br," which is only 1 word, "sp," which is only 1 word, and "ut," which is also only 1 word. Hope this helped!
