It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Answer:

The rhetorical device that can be found in he Gettysburg Address is:

Repetition

Step-by-step explanation:

Repetition is a literary device to classify the level of importance to all elements at the same level. It is identifiable because all the phrases or the sentences will start with the same word. In our case "that" is the word used to start the phrases and declare that all of the phrases have the same level of importance.
