-'rotted there'
-'huge sods'
-'punishing'
-'sweltered'
-'strong gauze'
An oxymoron is used within the fifth line; 'bubbles gargled delicately' - this is a contradictory term used in conjunction in the sense that usually when bubbles gargle, they do so fiercely and wildly not in a calm and chilled way. A metaphor is also identified in line 6; Seamus states 'Bluebottles wove a strong gauze of sound around the smell' he is attempting to portray that a bandage like gauze of sound is being wrapped around smell - when theoretically this could not be possible.
