What are two literary devices found in this poem by Walt Whitman?

well there's allusion aplenty. It is most apparent with the Pleiades. They are not only a belt of stars but also sisters in mythology. And then I'm thinking metaphor. But I'm not sure. There is lots of parallel structure and repetition, however, none of it is alliteration
