Literary devices in Ode TO The West Wind

similes
metaphor
personification
symbolism
alliteration
Are driven like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing
thou breath of Autumn's being
O wild West Wind"
West wind– death
&
rebirth
O wild West Wind"
Each like a corpse within its grave
tangled boughs of Heaven and Ocean
thou breath of Autumn's being,
West wind– power
Of  nature
the leaves dead
Are driven
sweet buds like flocks to feed in air
Angels of rain and lightning
Thou from whose unseen presence the leaves dead
Dead leaves—
Destruction
Winged seeds—
rejuvenation
Thou dirge
Of the dying year
Loose clouds like Earth's decaying leaves
The locks of the approaching storm
Who chariotest
Dying year—
End of the season
in Baiae's bay,
Like the bright hair uplifted
closing night
Will be the dome of a vast sepulchre
Destroyer and Preserver
Falling leaves &
Dead thoughts—
His old poems
grow grey with fear,
One too like thee
The trumpet of a prophecy
Thou dirge
Of the dying year
West wind--an inspiring spiritual power
when to outstrip thy skiey speed
as from an unextinguished hearth

Thou who didst waken from his summer dreams

Scarce seemed a vision
even as the forest is

The blue Mediterranean, where he lay


Like withered leaves

My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one





Visual imagery
Auditory imagery
Kinetic imagery
Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed
Her clarion
Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere
Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red
Know thy voice, and suddenly grow grey with fear
“Shook from the tangled boughs of Heaven and Ocean
With living hues and odours plain and hill
The trumpet of a prophecy
For whose path the Atlantic’s level powers Cleave themselves into chasms
Angels of rain and lightning
Black rain and fire and hail will burst: O hear
Scatter, as from an unextinguished hearth Ashes and sparks
Like the bright hair uplifted from the head
The tumult of thy mighty harmonies

While far below The sea-blooms and the oozy woods which wear The sapless foliage of the ocean
