Which pair of lines from T. S. Elliot’s "Rhapsody on a Windy Night" is an example of onomatopoeia?

Twelve o'clock.

"Along the reaches of the street

Held in a lunar synthesis,

Whispering lunar incantations"

Dissolve the floors of memory

And all its clear relations,

Its divisions and precisions,

"Every street lamp that I pass

Beats like a fatalistic drum",

And through the spaces of the dark

Midnight shakes the memory

As a madman shakes a dead geranium.

Half-past one,

"The street lamp sputtered,

The street lamp muttered",

The street lamp said,

"Regard that woman

"Who hesitates toward you in the light of the door

Which opens on her like a grin".

You see the border of her dress

Is torn and stained with sand,

"And you see the corner of her eye

Twists like a crooked pin"."

I put quotation marks around the lines that are available for choosing

This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts? thus truth was multiplied on truth, [the world like one great garden show'd,] and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd, rare sunrise flow'd. [and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise] her beautiful bold brow, when rites and forms before his burning eyes melted like snow. [there was no blood upon her maiden robes] sunn'd by those orient skies; but round about the circles of the globes of her keen eyes and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame wisdom, a name to shake [all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.] and when she spake, [her words did gather thunder as they ran,] and as the lightning to the thunder which follows it, riving the spirit of man, making earth wonder, so was their meaning to her words. no sword of wrath her right arm whirl'd, [ but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word] she shook the world.
