B. alliteration

In the Middle Ages, poetry often made use of alliterative verse, where the repetition of the same or similar consonant sounds at the beginning of words or in stressed syllables is a defining characteristic. This was especially common in the poetry of languages such as Old English, Old Norse, and Old High German.
