Question

Annabel Lee
by Edgar Allan Poe
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.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we—
Of many far wiser than we—
And neither the angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

“Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.”
“Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;”
“Of those who were older than we—"

Answer 1

“Of those who were older than we—”

Reason: it repeats the initial "w" sound in "were" and "we," which is alliteration.
