Repetition.

Explanation:

Rhetorical devices are those literary or stylistic devices used by writers to infuse a sense of richness in their works through words and also present a persuasive appeal to the readers so as to influence them in a particular direction. These devices allow the works to have a certain appeal to the readers and thus, giving a sense of emotional provocation or influence over them.

One of the most common rhetorical devices used for laying emphasis on a point is the use of repetition in a sentence or even a text. Repetition, as is the term, is the repeated use of the same words in near/ consecutive order. This repetition provides a clearer picture of what is implied or stated and brings attention to it so as to make it memorable and emphasizing the point.
