Answer: Alliteration

Alliteration refers to the repetition of the same initial consonant sounds within a group of words. Alliteration is commonly used in order to cause an emotional effect or to increase the persuasiveness of a text. Alliteration is also known as "head rhyme." In this case, the alliteration occurs in the words "swivel" and "still," which both have the same initial consonant sound.
