Answer:

Alliteration

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to a literary device in which the same initial consonant sound occurs in a number of words that are close together in a series. The use of alliteration enhances the rhythmic properties of a text making it more persuasive and easy to remember. In this case, the author uses alliteration in the words "swivel" and "still."

Why has the poet compared imagination to a soaring bird in this excerpt from the poem "On Imagination" by Phillis Wheatley? Imag
Serga [27]
In the poem "On Imagination" by Phyllis Wheatley, imagination was compared to that of a soaring bird probably because the bird can reach the highest of mountains, the clouds and even beyond the sky. Just like the imagination, the bird is limitless and with no boundaries. The bird can see everything up and out there that cannot be seen by common folks much like the imagination wherein everything is possible and anything and everybody exists. The bird just like the imagination flies so high to the vast outer space seeing wonders and beauties as they travel and fly leaving those in time when the imagination needs to go back to reality and the bird to his home.
