The figure of speech in  the lines ‘Goats ate the leaves, the grass cutter scythe…’ is b)  Alliteration, though the technically correct answer is consonance

Alliteration is a figure of speech that refers to the repetition of a particular sound. In this case, the consonant sound ‘t’ has been repeated in the first two words, ‘Goats’ and ‘ate’. Do not look at the spellings of the words. Focus on the sound ‘t’. This repetition of the ’t’ sound is termed as consonance, since ‘t’ produces a consonant sound. Though the third word ‘the’ also begins with a ‘t’, it sounds different. Therefore, consonance applies only to the first two words.
