Answer:

The correct answer to this question: Which poetic device does Poe use in these lines?, would be, A: Consonance.

Explanation:

Consonance is defined as a literary technique used both in prose and also in poetry, in which the consonants in adjoining, or close words, are repeated, creating an almost repetitive sound, almost like underlining the importance of that sound. In this particular case, we have the repetition of the consonant p, in tapping, rapping and then again, rapping. Its almost as if the author wanted to create a sense of mystery, and even fear, by repeating the p sound in those words. This is why the correct answer is Consonance, and not any of the other choices.

Adverbs modify (describe) verbs or other adverbs and often end in -ly.  You need to locate the verb to determine at least one of the adverbs (the action of the sentence.)  This is a complex sentence because it has an independent clause (it was not exactly what he had in mind) and a subordinate clause (when he agreed to do the task).  If you just look at the independent clause, or the one that can stand by itself, you will find the verb 'was'.  Ask yourself 'was what'.  The answer is not, which means it is the adverb.  To find the adverb describing it, we again ask, 'not what'.  The answer is exactly.  So the answer is A.
