The literary device Poe uses in line four is alliteration.
This device adds to the effect of the stanza because the repeated sound reminds us of the waves in the ocean.
- This question refers to the poem "To Helen," by Edgar Allan Poe. In the first stanza, the poet compares Helen's beauty to barks of yore on a gentle sea.
- In line 4, Poe uses alliteration, which is a device consisting of the <u>repetition of an initial sound in words that are close to one anothe</u>r:
<em>"The </em><em>w</em><em>eary, </em><em>w</em><em>ay-</em><em>w</em><em>orn </em><em>w</em><em>anderer borne"</em>
- The repetition of the "w" sound is used to make us think of the swooshing sound the waves of the ocean produce.
- With that, we can conclude the poet adds to the effect of the stanza by allowing readers to picture the scene being described more vividly.
