1. Warming up: Using your ears to unravel a poem's tone (and exploring the secret packets)
Euphony ("Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;
Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep,
Drowsed with the fume of poppies, while thy hook
Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers")
Cacophony (“With throats unslaked, with black lips baked,/ Agape they heard me call.”)
Assonance ("dreams" and "leaves")
