      • Metaphor: In the line “The power, that gives with liberal hand”, the “power” acts as a metaphor for God.
      • Eye Rhyme: For the sake of maintaining the rhyme scheme, the first stanza employs eye rhyme with the words “bless’d” and “rest”.
      • Syncope: A couple of examples would be “bless’d” and “Bestow’d”.
