Answer: A.) Alliteration

Step-by-step explanation:

alliteration-the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.

hyperbole- is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech.

metaphor-a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

assonance-in poetry, the repetition of the sound of a vowel in non-rhyming stressed syllables near enough to each other for the echo to be discernible

I hope this is good enough:
