How good to lie a little while

And look up through the tree!

The Sky is like a kind big smile

Bent sweetly over me.

The Sunshine flickers through the lace                                            5

Of leaves above my head;

And kisses me upon the face

Like Mother, before bed.

The Wind comes stealing o’er the grass

To whisper pretty things;                                                                10

And though I cannot see him pass,

I feel his careful wings.

So many gentle Friends are near

Whom one can scarcely see,

A child should never feel a fear,                                                   15

Wherever he may be.

What poetic technique is used in Line 3?
