Analyzing and Interpreting Literature / Unit 7   AIL 0630 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Keats and the Murmurous Haunt

Captions available

The idea

That same stanza ends on the murmurous haunt of flies on summer eves. Murmurous is sound, and the word's own consonants murmur, which unit six would call consonance. Image and sound device work the same phrase, and a question may ask about either.

In practice

The word murmurs as it means.

Where people slip

One phrase, two examinable devices.
