In the given text, I have identified the following instances of alliteration:
1) "ships were allowed to sail without being carefully searched"
The words "ships" and "sail" share the same initial "s" sound.
2) "Daedalus was an ingenious artist"
The words "Daedalus" and "ingenious" share the same initial "d" sound.
3) "Minos may control the land and sea"
The words "Minos" and "may" share the same initial "m" sound.
Please note that alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound in adjacent or closely connected words, so I have highlighted the instances according to that definition.
