Answer 2

Answer:

The ‘figure of speech’ in the given line is ‘Alliteration’.

Explanation:

‘Alliteration’ is a figure of speech associated with sound. When a particular consonant or vowel sound is successively repeated in a sentence it is known as alliteration.  

Alliteration is of two types- consonance and assonance. ‘Consonance’ is the repetition of the ‘same consonant’ in consecutive words of a sentence. ‘Assonance’ is the repetition of the ‘same vowel’ sound in ‘consecutive words’ of a sentence.  

In the given sentence, ‘Or if some time when roaming round’, there is alliteration. The letter ‘r’ is repeated successively in the words ‘roaming, round’. It is of the type-consonance.
