From the given options, select the Figure of Speech (Poetic Device) used in the expression:

His heavy shotted hammock shroud

Alliteration

The correct answer is OPTION 4 Alliteration.

Alliteration is a figure of speech in which words that begin with the same sound are used close together. In the expression "His heavy shotted hammock shroud," the repeated "h" sound creates a sense of heaviness and weight. This is appropriate because the hammock shroud is a heavy piece of rope that is used to secure a hammock.

The other answer choices are incorrect. Pun is a play on words, metaphor is a comparison between two things, and simile is a comparison between two things using the words "like" or "as." None of these devices are used in the expression "His heavy shotted hammock shroud."
