The plant symbolizes the struggles that the family has been faced against, and how with perseverance, the family and the plant, will survive.

1 ) Alliteration - “Well, he seemed so low that I couldn't say no; then he says with a sort of moan"
The words in this line, from a quatrain from ‘The Cremation of Sam McGee’ by Robert W. Service, are examples of alliteration. Notice that when reading this line aloud you hear the repetitiveness of what saying the letter ‘o’ sounds like. The words that create this sound are ‘so,’ ‘low,’ and ‘moan.'

2 ) Assonance - “Till I came to the marge of Lake Lebarge, [...]"
The words ‘came,’ ‘marge,’ ‘lake,’ and ‘Lebarge’ all consist of the same vowel sound that is ‘a.’ Another example is in the line that states “In the long, long night, [...].” Both the words ‘long’ and ‘long,’ consist of the ‘o’ vowel.'
