Alliteration is when two or more words have the same beginning sound. In the poem there are three examples:
1) Though...thy...thou
2) crest...craven
3) shorn...shaven
Alliteration gives the text a more unified rhythm, in a way I guess. It makes the piece sound more together.
Hope this helps!

Answer:

D. Pun.

Explanation:

A pun is a play on words by using them in a different way. This literary device allows the writer to use a word in different forms by implying a different meaning.

A pun is used more often in a humorous way when a word is used to mean multiple things. This play on words allows the listener to feel funny yet still also gives a sense of correctness in what has been said.

For example, when someone says <em>"a happy life depends on a liver"</em>. So, liver here may mean the human liver, the organ, or simply someone who lives for every moment.  

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
