Answer:

"Flag is flung" and line 19's "safe and sound" are two instances of alliteration.

Explanation:

While experiencing the joy of their victory, Whitman also expresses sadness over the loss of Lincoln to the country. The poet claims that the captain is no longer alive. He has pale lips. He is unable to feel the poet's arms or the beat of his own heart.

At this point, the ship has reached its destination. There is relief among the populace now that the "frightful trip," or the horrors of the Civil War, are behind us. While the general public is celebrating, the poet is lamenting Lincoln's passing. Here, the term "deck" refers to Lincoln's graveyard. Poet walks around this area and bemoans his passing.
