I looked upon the scene before me-upon the mere house, and the simple landscape features of the domain-upon the bleak wä

which I can compare to no earthly sensation more properly than to the after-dream of the reveller upon opium-the bitter lapse i

an iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart-an unredeemed drea

In jazz and blues music, a “blue” note is a note that is sung or played at a slightly different pitch for expressive purposes. Blue notes stand out from regular notes and are often especially emotive. They are thought to have originated in traditional African work songs. The blue note is technically neither in the major key nor minor key. Instead, it has a tonality that is somewhere in the middle of the two. For instance, when playing in the key of E, a musician typically plays or sings either the G or G?. The blue note, by contrast, would be between G and G?, or would move between them. Often times, the blue note bears an aural similarity to a minor chord, but is played or sung over a group of major chords. This results in a distinctively dissonant sound. It is this sound that has led some to refer to the blue note as the “worried” note.

Explain why the following line is an example of alliteration.

The beautiful blue water sparkles in the sunlight.
