Answer:
anecdote
Explanation:
The rhetorical device that is used in this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The Danger of Lying in Bed" is anecdote (assuming that your options are allusion, rhetorical question, anecdote, and logic).
The phrase is from Keats's famous Ode on a Grecian Urn. Exact lines are:
<em>Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd,
</em>
<em>Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone</em>
The author tells the pipes do not play to his or physical ear, but to the metaphorical ear or in his word of his "spirit". This spiritual ear is "more endear’d," or cherished in other words. The author asks the pipes to play "ditties of no tone,". It is songs without any note or sound and that songs do not exist in the real world.
