Question

literary device in the line 'that made the breeze to blow'

Answer 1

The literary device used in the line, 'that made the breeze to blow' is alliteration. Alliteration refers to the repetition of the same sound.  

Here, there are two examples of alliteration within the same line.

1. 'that made the breeze to blow'

The ‘b’ sound is repeated. Here, the letter ‘b’ produces the ‘b’ sound.

2. 'that made the breeze to blow'

The poet has repeated the ‘th’ sound. Please note that the word ‘to’ is not part of the alliteration. Though the words ‘that’, ‘the’ and ‘to’ all begin with the letter ‘t’, only the first two words have the same sound. Alliteration is not about the letters, but about the sound.

Therefore the literary device used here is alliteration.
