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;
Which line is an example of alliteration?

• "Went envying her and me-"

The line that is an example of alliteration is: "Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee."
Alliteration is the repetition of the same initial consonant sound in a series of words, and in this case, the repeated "k" sound in "chilling" and "killing" qualifies as alliteration.
