Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

The poem above mainly uses Personfication, Atilleration. Atilleration is used to emphasizes the relationships between words on the basis of sound as well as sense. Personification is used to convey and emphasize unusual and vivid images or give inanimate objects feelings in order to show emotion.

For an example,"My little horse must think it queer". In reality, we cannot know what the animal is thinking about. However, in the poem, the poet uses personificaton to bring out the human characteristic in the horse.

Atilleration is also used. "He gives his harness bells a shake" . The words "he", "his" and "hardness" are similar as they start with aletter "H". The defination of artilleration is that the repetition of usually initial consonant sounds in two or more neighboring words or syllables.
