Answer:

Swords and steeds; Miniver and Medici; Cursed and commonplace.

Explanation:

An alliteration is a literary device in which consonant of two or more words in the same line repeats. Common occurrence of an alliteration can be found in 'Tongue Twisters.'

For example, I saw Susie sitting at the seashore selling seashell. (There's a repetition of the consonant 's' in the line).

In the poem "Miniver Cheevy" written by Edwin Arlington Robinson, there are many examples of alliteration. Some are stated in the question, other examples are:

  • He wept that he ever was born (line 3)
  • Swords and steeds (line 6)
  • Miniver and Medici (line 17)
  • Cursed the commonplace (line 21)
  • missed the Medieval (line 23)

lara [203]
For a topic sentence, or the beginning sentence that signifies the main idea of the paragraph, you could focus on the fact that there are a variety of things to do at the beach (perhaps the 3rd sentence). To create a hook, or an eye-catching sentence, you can use the childhood memory of learning to swim, but perhaps in more detail. In other words, recreate the scene rather than just saying it was a happy memory (i.e. I'm five years old and am amazed by how weightless I feel in the water). Once you create the hook and topic sentence, you can talk about other activities at the beach as your supporting evidence.
