The correct answer is B, the sound devide used is alliteration. Throughout the first and thirds lines, words beginning with the letter "b" are repeated: birches, bend, boy and been.

Alliteration is the repetition of initial consonant sounds in nearby stressed words or syllables. In the two lines signaled by the question, of all the sound devices mentioned, alliteration is the only one used.
