There could very well be assonance and consonance as well (i'm not going to check)
Anything not on my list could be found before this part, when the clowns are talking.
I'll play; it's fun.
I think I found metonymy in this riddle in scene 1:
GRAVEDIGGER
What is he that builds stronger than either the mason, the shipwright, or the carpenter?
OTHER
The gallows-maker, for that frame outlives a thousand tenants.
