उत्तर
The use of Alliteration is evident in: “Beside” and “Beneath” (stanza l),”Ten” and “Thousand”
(stanza 2).”Tossing their heads in sprightly dance”, are the uses assonance, of “s” sound which sounds soft and comfortable. Simile is used when daffodils and stars are compared. Emphasis is evident in the the lively pace of the flowers’ “continuously”. The poet uses personification: daffodils dancing, tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The flowers share the same happiness as the poet has. Repetition is used with the word gazed to emphasize that he wanted to join in the hilarious dance of the flowers.
The literary device of inversion:
- “Continuous as the stars that shine… the margin of a bay”
- “Ten thousand saw I at a glance”
