2) A
Explanation:
Let's start by clarifying what alliteration is.
It is a literary device that consists of repeating a variety of the same or similar sounds within a text, hence it is considered a figure of diction due to the effect it produces. Now, the consequent repetition of a sound must occur in the same phrase or word, in this case: windy.
On the other hand we must identify the mood of these lines, and we must say that it is wistful since the speaker is longing to return to the sea, he can even hear its call.
