Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One purpose of the alliteration in this poem is “to draw attention to the words "filter" and "fibre"”. Alliteration is a stylistic device in which some words that have the same first consonant sound, happen to be close together in a series. In the excerpt, it helps to make emphasis to the lines in which the words are said.
