Is there a passage for this?
A hyperbole is an extreme literary exaggeration. Such as, "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse!" Obviously one person could not eat a horse, but instead uses a hyperbole to express his/her hunger.
Shakespeare uses alliteration, end rhyme and onomatopoeia in his poem. Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound a the beginning of a group of words. An example of this is the first line: "Full fathom five thy father lies". The /f/ sound is repeated. He also uses end rhyme in his poem to create the rhyme scheme ABABCCDED. Lastly Shakepeare uses the sound device onomatopoeia. An onomatopoeia is word that sounds the same as it's meaning. An example of this is "Ding-Dong."
