Which rhetorical device is used in the first two lines of the King's speech?
"What's he that wishes so?
My cousin Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin;" (4-5)
repetition
rhetorical question
restatement
parallelism

Respuesta :

In “I Have a Dream”, Martin Luther King Jr. extensively uses repetitions, metaphors, and allusions. Other rhetorical devices that you should note are antithesis, direct address, and enumeration.

Answer:

From the context given, I believe it's a rhetorical question.

Explanation:

"What's he that wishes so?" may be used to add some sort of dramatic effect, as he is not directly asking anybody in particular. There is no source of repetition, both sentences have no source of parellelism (no similar grammatical structure or pattern) or any restatement.
