Answer:
Literary device used in third line is Alliteration. ‘Stop that slouching and sit up straight’.
Difference between repetition and alliteration-
Repetition: It is a literary device in which a word or phrase is repeated two or more times. In the poem, words like Amanda, Don’t etc are repeated again and again for poetic effect.
Alliteration: It is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. e.g. “Stop that slouching and sit up straight”, “Did you tidy your room” etc.
