I had to choose poetic device examples from a poem and these are the lines I chose. I just wanted them to be checked to make sure I am right!

Alliteration - Sail south from here over the salt-streams

Assonance - Go down to the sea, the home of the gull

Your example for alliteration is good, but not for assonance. Try again after you read up on assonance in the linked page.

To check if your chosen lines are examples of poetic devices, let's look at each line individually:

1. "Sail south from here over the salt-streams"

You correctly identified this as an example of alliteration. Alliteration is the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words in close proximity. In this line, the repetition of the "s" sound in "sail," "south," and "streams" demonstrates alliteration. Well done!

2. "Go down to the sea, the home of the gull"

You identified this as an example of assonance. Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds within words, typically in close proximity. In this line, the repetition of the "o" sound in "Go," "down," "to," "of," and "gull" demonstrates assonance. Great job!

Based on your analysis, it appears that you correctly identified the poetic devices in the given lines. Keep up the good work! Remember, analyzing poetry is subjective to some extent, so different interpretations are possible, but your explanations for alliteration and assonance are accurate.
