Read the passage.

And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,

As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing.

A mighty fountain momently was forced ...

Which human sound does the assonance between "fast" and "pants" echo in these lines from "Kubla Kahn" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge?

the whining sound made by a person in tears the hissing sound an angry person might make the gasping sound of a person who is out of breath the murmuring sound of people talking in low voices

    An assonance is a writing technique usually used in poetry wherein vowel sounds are repeated. In the passage from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "Kubla Kahn", there is assonance between the words "fast" and "pants" which is the sound of the vowel "a". I think that the human sound that echoes in these lines is the gasping sound of a person who is out of breath.
