And here and there a foamy flake Upon me, as I travel With many a silvery water break Above the golden gravel. (a) What is the poetic device used in ‘foamy flakes?’ (b) Where does the brook pass over?

And here and there a foamy flake
Upon me, as I travel
With many a silvery water break
Above the golden gravel.

Paraphrase: As the brook flows on, foamy flakes are formed over its surface. When it passes over the golden shingles and pebbles many silvery waves are formed over them.

(a) What is the poetic device used in ‘foamy flakes?’

(b) Where does the brook pass over?

(c) What are formed above the golden gravels?
