Answer 1

In the provided stanza, the poetic elements present are:

- **Alliteration**: The repetition of initial consonant sounds in "silly," "simpering," and "sideways."
- **Consonance**: The repetition of consonant sounds in close proximity, seen in the use of "sellout" and "more," which both contain the 's' sound.

So the correct answers are **alliteration** and **consonance**.
