The line from Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem that illustrate an alliteration is:

" Thy winds, thy wide grey skies!"

Alliteration refers to the us the same sound at the beginning of several words that are close together.

Here, the author is usin the "w" sound in the words "winds" and "wide" to create an alliteration within the poem.
