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 cloudy 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

1 answer

The line that is an example of alliteration is:

D. chilling and killing my Annabel Lee

Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sounds at the beginning of words in a sentence or phrase, and in this case, "chilling" and "killing" both start with the "k" sound, creating alliteration.
