Which of these poetic passages use alliteration for effect?
the delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of the girl sewing or washing, each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else, the day what belongs to the day—at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly, singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs. (walt whitman, "i hear america singing")

it was a spring that never came; but we have lived enough to know that what we never have, remains; it is the things we have that go. (sara teasdale, "wisdom")

in a solitude of the sea deep from human vanity, and the pride of life that planned her, stilly couches she. (thomas hardy, "the convergence of the twain")

Explanation:

Alliteration is a figure of speech and stylistic device that occurs when some words close to each other begin with the same letter, but also can be the same sound of the letters (C and K : Conspire; King). In the poem, the alliteration happens with the letter S: solitude; sea; with the letter P: pride; planned; and again with the letter S: silly; she.

recent brain research has shown some surprising benefits as a result of formal musical training. learning to play a musical instrument appears to develop parts of the brain that can even influence academic results. the studies indicate that the earlier a child begins training, the more benefits there are. one such study showed that children who began musical studies before the age of seven had a more developed brain in the region where language production and auditory processing take place. scientists believe there is mounting evidence to show that early musical training can improve brain function.
