Sally threw her bike and ran towards the house. She wanted to figure out what made that loud noise coming from in the house. She knocked on the door shouting, "Hello? Anyone there?" No one answered but the loud noise continued to play. She grabbed a bobby pin from her hair that her mother put up this morning and used it to unlock the door. Once she got in, she searched to find the noise. It wasn't in the living room, it wasn't in the kitchen, and it surely wasn't in the bedrooms. Sally looked up and noticed there was a string attached to a little panel on the roof. She pulled on the string and down came a ladder, leading up to the attic. She braced herself for what was about to come, climbing up the steps slowly. Sally peered into the room to see a bright lit up T.V. with a person she's never seen before watching it. The stranger looked at her and became shocked, turned off the TV, and tried to run past her to get out of the house. The attic was shut though, so the stranger needed to take some time to put it down. Sally stopped the stranger, who appeared to be a male, and questioned him, "What are you doing in this house? The real owners are on vacation right now!" The stranger didn't answer, finally opened the attic door and ran out the house as fast as he could. Sally tried to run after him, but she was much slower. The guy was no where in sight when she got outside. Sally immediately called the owners of the house and told them about this incident, and the man was never in there again.
Answer:
The figurative language used in the stanza is: alliteration.
Explanation:
Alliteration is a literary device that repeats consonant sounds at the beginning of words that are close to each other in a structure. A simple example would be a well-known tongue twister: She sells seashells by the seashore (the /s/ sound is repeated).
In the stanza we are analyzing here, alliteration takes place when the author repeats the sound represented by the letter "h":
<em>In the silence </em><em>h</em><em>e </em><em>h</em><em>as </em><em>h</em><em>eard</em>
We have three words in a row beginning with the same consonant sound. Thus, we have an alliteration.
The stanza is an excerpt from the poem "The D.um.b Soldier," by Robert Louis Stevenson.
