1. To determine the correct answer, we need to understand the definitions of metaphor, simile, assonance, and alliteration.

- Metaphor: a figure of speech that compares two unrelated things without using "like" or "as." It states that one thing is another thing.
- Simile: a figure of speech that compares two unrelated things using "like" or "as."
- Assonance: the repetition of vowel sounds within words.
- Alliteration: the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words.

Now, if we analyze the words "seared," "bleared," and "smeared" in the context of the sentence, we can see that Hopkins is not directly comparing them to anything else. Instead, he is using these words to describe something.

Since there is no comparison or similarity being expressed, we can eliminate options A and C (metaphor and simile) as the answer.

Now, let's look at assonance and alliteration. Neither of them directly applies here either because these words don't repeat the same vowel sounds (assonance) or consonant sounds (alliteration).

Therefore, the correct answer is D. alliteration. Hopkins's use of "seared," "bleared," and "smeared" is an example of alliteration.

To determine the answer, we needed to analyze the meaning of each literary term and apply it to the specific words in the sentence.
