Which two lines in this excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe's "Bells" uses assonance?
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,
To the turtle-dove that listens, while she gloats
On the moon!
(Assonance: in poetry, the repetition of the sound of a vowel or diphthong in non-rhyming stressed syllables near enough to each other for the echo to be discernible)
