Answer:

Grim and greedy ➡️Alliteration

The whale-path➡️Kenning

They drive their keels o'er the darkling wave ➡️Synecdoche

the Ruler-of-Man ➡️Epithet

Step-by-step explanation:

I have matched them correctly.

Alliteration refers to the occurence of same sounds or same letters in a sentence.

Kenning is actually a figure of speech which gives an expression (poetic in nature) that usually refers to a person or thing.

Synecdoche is a figure of speech that talks of something as a whole or vice versa.

Epithet is known as a phrase or word that usually expresses the characteristic of the person or thing
