Explanation:

Rhetorical devices are techniques are those techniques or elements of writing a text that a writer uses to convey the intended message. These techniques may include, ethos, alliteration, anaphora, pathos, parallelism, understatement, etc.

In the given speech, Isabella Baumfree/ Sojourner Truth employs the three techniques of ethos, pathos, and parallelism.

Ethos is the argument presented by a speaker by using his/ her character to establish the credibility of the argument. In the speech, Sojourner Truth bluntly stated "Nobody ever me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place!" She also admits "I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me!" proving that she is credible enough to talk about what is right or wrong.

Pathos is when a speaker uses her words in such a way that it evokes pity, sadness, or elicit feelings of relatability in the listeners. This can be seen in her words "I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me!"

Parallelism is the use of the same words and phrases while making one's point. Her constant use of the phrase "Ain’t I a woman?" is an example of the parallelism in her speech.
