In the phrase "to buzz forth doleful lamentations", the word "buzz" is an example of an onomatopoeia. Basically, it means that the sound of bees flying or "buzzing" expresses a melancholy expression. This could be considered an onomatopoeia, but it also is used to say the bees "spoke" which implies that they "buzzed" as in it was their way of speaking, diction if you will. The whole sentence is "<span>At length, as if comprehending their disaster, they settled down in clusters on a dry branch of a neighboring tree, whence they seemed to contemplate the prostrate ruin, and to </span>buzz forth doleful lamentations<span> over the downfall of their republic" which clearly says they SEEMED, which rules out diction as an answer. So, the answer should be onomatopoeia. </span>Hope this helps!

Answer: C) onomatopoeia.

In poetry allternation is
Goshia [24]

Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound at the beginning of a group of words.

Poets use alliteration to help create mood, rhythm or emphasis. It can also help with memorization. It's important to realize that it's all about sound, not spelling. For example, the letter c can have a hard or soft sound as in cereal and cat. These two words next to each other would not be considered alliteration because they are not the same sound. Examples of alliteration are:

My many monkeys met at the museum.

All the aardvarks already arrived.
