Alliteration, Imagery.

Explanation:

In the given lines from 'General Prologue to Canterbury Tales', Chaucer employs imagery as well as alliteration to depict the time of the year when holy pilgrimage takes place i.e. 'April.'

Through the use of imagery, he offers a beautiful description of April during Springtime through vivid images of peace and tranquility. It helps the author to provide a sensory experience to the readers through which they can visualize the renewal brought by spring's 'sweet showers' after the 'dry' March. It helps the readers to imagine the wonderful time during which the pilgrims go for holy pilgrimage. The use of alliteration in 'sweet showers' gathers readers' attention and enhances the impact and serenity brought by spring.

while his customary satire is present in mark twain's short story "the notorious jumping frog of calaveras county," there is a cloaking of this satire as twain's narrator is not directly involved. another literary device that you could build a thesis around is the use by twain of hyperbole.
