Select the correct text in the passage. Which line from Edgar Allan Poe’s "Annabel Lee" contains alliteration? Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me. I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea, But we loved with a love that was more than love— I and my Annabel Lee— With a love that the wingèd seraphs of Heaven Coveted her and me. And this was the reason that, long ago, In this kingdom by the sea, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling My beautiful Annabel Lee; So that her highborn kinsmen came And bore her away from me, To shut her up in a sepulchre In this kingdom by the sea. The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, Went envying her and me— Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know, In this kingdom by the sea) That the wind came out of the cloud by night, Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

Answer:

There are quite a few lines! Choose from one of these:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. That a maiden there lived whom you may know

2. But we loved with a love that was more than love

3. The angels, not half so happy in Heaven

In case you don't know, alliteration is the repetition of initial consonant sounds within a passage of text. Such as Five Fierce Foxes Fought For Food.

Good luck!
