"The brown cow found the ground." What rhetorical device is being used in this sentence?

English

Answer:

d

Explanation:

Let's first talk assonance - it's the use of the same vowel sound with words close together to create noticeable repetition (there needn't be rhyming, merely repetition).

Does How now, brown cow meet the definition? There is a repeated vowel - "ow" - and the words follow each other, so there is no question the repetition is noticeable.

And so yes, this is an example of assonance.

Explanation:

This is a long narrative poem written by John Greenleaf Whittier recalling the incidents that happened during a snow storm. In this poem he describes how his family was hit by snow storm and then eventually snowbound and the consequences which caused them to be shut off from the entire world.

At first when the snow storm hailed the family was threatened and they planned ways to clear the huge piles of snow from their house but as days passed on it became more severe. The family started to read stories, remain calm and they found the situation much pleasing and they started enjoying the snow rather than being depressed. They gathered the hope that they would remain alive but it was no so and it was only the author and his brother who survived
