Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Let's analyze each line:

Line (9): "While I nodded, nearly napping, ..."
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial consonant sound of "n" in "nodded", "nearly", and "napping".
  • No assonance (vowel sounds) or onomatopoeia (sound - imitating words) here.
Line (10): "How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,"
  • Onomatopoeia: "Tinkle" imitates the sound of bells.
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial "t" sound in "they" and "tinkle".
  • Assonance: The repeated long "i" sound in "tinkle" (the vowel sound in "i" of "tinkle" is consistent).
Line (11): "Over many a quaint and curious volume ..."
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial "q" sound in "quaint" and "curious", and the repeated initial "v" sound in "many" and "volume" (wait, no, "many" starts with "m" and "volume" with "v"—correction: the repeated initial "q" in "quaint" and "curious", and also the "m" in "many" and maybe not—wait, "quaint" and "curious" have the "q" sound, and "many" and "volume" no. Also, Assonance: The long "a" sound in "many" and "quaint" (the vowel "a" in "many" and "quaint" has a similar long - a sound? Wait, "many" is /ˈmeni/ (short e) and "quaint" is /kweɪnt/ (long a). Maybe better: the "u" sound in "quaint" and "curious"? "Quaint" has /eɪ/ and "curious" has /jʊər/—maybe not. Wait, the main alliteration here is "quaint" and "curious" (q - sound).
Line (12): "From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells."
  • Onomatopoeia: "Jingling" and "tinkling" imitate the sounds of bells.
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial "j" in "jingling" and "the" (no, "the" is /ðə/—wait, "jingling" and "tinkling" have the "ing" sound at the end, but initial sounds: "jingling" starts with "j", "tinkling" with "t"—no. Wait, "jingling" and "tinkling" both have the "l" sound? No. Wait, "from" and "the"—no. Wait, "jingling" and "tinkling" are onomatopoeic, and also, the "ing" ending is a form of assonance? No, assonance is vowel sounds. Wait, "jingling" has /ɪ/ and "tinkling" has /ɪ/—yes! The short "i" sound in "jingling" and "tinkling"—so Assonance (short "i" sound). Also, Alliteration? No, initial sounds differ.
Line (13): "To the tintinnabulation ..."
  • Onomatopoeia: "Tintinnabulation" imitates the sound of bells (the word is related to the sound of ringing bells).
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial "t" sound in "to" and "tintinnabulation".
Line (14): "“Tis some visitor,” I muttered, ..."
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial "v" sound in "visitor" and maybe not—wait, "muttered" starts with "m"—no. Wait, "some" and "visitor"—no. Wait, "Tis" ( /tɪz/) and "visitor" ( /ˈvɪzɪtə(r)/) have the "i" sound—Assonance (short "i" sound in "Tis" and "visitor").
Line (15): "In a sort of runic rhyme."
  • Alliteration: The repeated initial "r" sound in "runic" and "rhyme".
  • Assonance: The long "i" sound in "runic" and "rhyme" (the vowel "i" in both words has a similar long - i sound? "Runic" is /ˈruːnɪk/ (long u and short i), "rhyme" is /raɪm/ (long i)—maybe not. Wait, the "r" sound is alliteration.

Now, let's list for each line:

  • Line 9: Alliteration (n - sounds)
  • Line 10: Onomatopoeia (tinkle), Alliteration (t - sounds), Assonance (i - sounds in tinkle)
  • Line 11: Alliteration (q - sounds in quaint, curious)
  • Line 12: Onomatopoeia (jingling, tinkling), Assonance (i - sounds in jingling, tinkling)
  • Line 13: Onomatopoeia (tintinnabulation), Alliteration (t - sounds)
  • Line 14: Assonance (i - sounds in Tis, visitor), maybe Alliteration? (Tis is /tɪz/, visitor /ˈvɪzɪtə(r)/—no, initial…

Answer:

Line (9)
  • Alliteration (repeated "n" sound in "nodded", "nearly", "napping")
Line (10)
  • Onomatopoeia ("tinkle" imitates bell sound), Alliteration (repeated "t" sound in "they", "tinkle"), Assonance (repeated "i" sound in "tinkle")
Line (11)
  • Alliteration (repeated "q" sound in "quaint", "curious")
Line (12)
  • Onomatopoeia ("jingling", "tinkling" imitate bell sounds), Assonance (repeated "i" sound in "jingling", "tinkling")
Line (13)
  • Onomatopoeia ("tintinnabulation" imitates bell sound), Alliteration (repeated "t" sound in "to", "tintinnabulation")
Line (14)
  • Assonance (repeated "i" sound in "Tis", "visitor"), Alliteration? (No, initial sounds differ. Primarily Assonance)
Line (15)
  • Alliteration (repeated "r" sound in "runic", "rhyme")
