- Heaney uses sound effects...
This has an impact as it is gives the reader the impression of the frogs jumping in the muddy fields, getting closer to Heaney and threatening him. It is an ugly noise, whuich gives the reader a negative impression of nature.
-Personification: "bubbles gargled delicately"
This has an impact as the reader can imagine the bubbles gracefully popping andd making a gargling noise, which is quite peacful; just like nature.
-Alliteration: "coarse croaking"
This has an impact as the reader can imagine the frogs loudly croaking. The fact that it is coarse, this gives the reader a negative impression of the frog, as this noise would be quite frightening, and would make you want to run away, which is what Heaney does.
