In this passage, Alliteration is present in the words "nodded, nearly napping".

Alliteration is a literary device that consists of the repetition of a consonant sound at the beginning of words or stressed syllables of close proximity. The three words "nodded, nearly, napping" begin with the sound /n/. The effect that alliteration has in this passage is that <u>it resembles the situation of falling asleep</u>. Thus, the reader can experience that through the word choice of the poem.
