Answer:

The rhetorical device that Abraham Lincoln employs when he says, "that government of the people, by the people, for the people" is epistrophe.

Explanation:

Epistrophe that means "return" is a rhetorical device of repetition of the same word or words at the end of successive phrases. It is a very empathic device because it emphasizes the last word and creates an emotion in the reader, this happens in the excerpt in the last lines when the word "people" is repeated many times.

Swarmed means to move somewhere in large numbers, usually crowding around something of interest to get a closer look. Assembled means to gather together in one place for a particular reason. This is usually done in an orderly fashion.
