Question
“the bells” by edgar allan poe
hear the sledges with the bells,
silver bells!
what a world of merriment their melody foretells!
how they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
in the icy air of night!
while the stars, that oversprinkle
all the heavens, seem to twinkle
with a crystalline delight;
keeping time, time, time,
in a sort of runic rhyme,
to the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
from the bells, bells, bells,
bells, bells, bells—
from the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.
hear the mellow wedding bells,
golden bells!
what a world of happiness their harmony foretells!
through the balmy air of night
how they ring out their delight!
from the molten - golden notes,
and all in tune,
what a liquid ditty floats
to the turtle - dove that listens, while she gloats
on the moon!
on from out the sounding cells,
what a gush of euphony voluminously wells!
how it swells!
how it dwells
on the future! how it tells
of the rapture that impels
which lines from “the bells” by edgar allan poe contain onomatopoeia? choose three correct answers.
Onomatopoeia is the use of words that imitate sounds. In "How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle", "tinkle" imitates the sound of bells. "From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells" also uses "jingling" and "tinkling" to mimic bell - sounds. "What a world of merriment their melody foretells!" doesn't have onomatopoeia. "To the rhyming and the chiming of the bells!" has "chiming" which imitates the bell sound. "Keeping time, time, time" is not onomatopoeia.
