(Great Gatsby)What literary device is used in the first paragraph of chapter 2 in The Great Gatsby?

Question

Hopefully someone has the book at home or something, because it is a rather long paragraph (but not to long to read I assure you!!!!)

It is a literary device that creates a sing-song effect?

I think I know the answer, but I am not a 100% sure and it's absolutely bugging me... any help or advice would be appreciated.

I have not read this novel, but there are a number of online study guides, and quite a few other resources on the web that can help you with this question.  Most of them have quite a bit of good information.  Have a look at these, and you should get some help with your work.  If you do a search you will find many other links.  Best of luck with it.
