The poetic device the speaker is using is allusion it this line. Option A is correct.

Allusion is a figure of speech that refers to a well-known story, event, person, or object in an attempt to make a comparison in the readers' minds. According to that definition, Bacchus, Satan, and the Hangman aren't actually characters in this literary piece of work, but the author is making a reference to them nevertheless.
