Which line in this excerpt from elizabeth bishop's "the fish" uses consonance?

from the pool of bilge"

Explanation:

Consonance is the repetitive use of consonant sounds in a phrase or sentence.  In this phrase, Elizabeth abuses of the sound of the consonant "T" to create the intended sense of rhythm. The sound of the consonant shows up 3 times in the sentence and it is used in short words to accentuate its sound.
