Which two pairs of words represent the use of alliteration in the poem? For A Lady I Know
by Countee Cullen

She even thinks that up in heaven
Her class lies late and snores

While poor black cherubs rise at seven
To do celestial chores.
Reset

lies late

celestial chores

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to literary device in which the repetition of the similar sound words are placed in the same sentence. The similar consonant sound words are written in the sentence.  

The words 'lies' and 'late' and 'celestial' and 'chores' are the example of alliteration used in the poem. The sound 'l' has been repeated in 'lies' and 'late'. The sound 'c' has been repeated in 'celestial' and 'chores'.

i believe it’s the first one, but it could be the second! not the third or fourth.
