Which lines of poetry are the best example of alliteration? (From the poem, “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe)(1 point)
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore–
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door
“‘Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door– Only this and nothing more.”
