Answer: The correct answer is: [D]:

__________________________________________

" {"By silver reeds in a silver stream," .}.

__________________________________________

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to the repetition —and/or nearby— beginning symbol consonant sounds; or, for that matter, beginning vowel sounds.

Refer to:

Choice D]: "{" By silver reeds in a silver stream," .}.

_____________________________________________

Note the repetition in succession — and nearby — beginning "consonant sounds" from this line of the poem— [specifically, the "ess sound"].

_____________________________________________

Note that choice [C]: "Walks the night in her silver shoon" ;

→ is Not the best — or correct — answer— {since the beginning consonant sounds of:

"silver" ; and: "shoon" ; are in fact "different" from each other.}.
