Answer:

Alliteration: The repetition of a consonant sound at the start of 2 or more consecutive words is known as anaphora.

Examples of Alliteration are as follows

“His horsemen hard behind us ride;

Should they our steps discover,

Then who will cheer my bonny bride

When they have slain her lover/”

Use of ‘b’ sound in bonny bride

Allusion: A reference or suggestion to a historical or well known person, place or thing.

Examples of Allusion are as follows

“So till the judgement that yourself arise, You live in this, and dwell in lover’s eyes.”

Judgement is referred to the judgement day which is an important day in the Christian religion. They believe that god will judge the deeds of all dead people on this day.
