The underlined words in this excerpt from “The Bells” by Edgar Allan Poe are examples of which sound device?

Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells—
From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.
