It is I: AesaLina. Sadly, I could not find many, most likely due to my inexperience with the subject. Improvement will come I am sure. Here is what I did find.
1. Copula: “As he [who is] defeated . . .”
2. Word order variation: “Can tell the definition so clear of Victory” “Can clearly tell the definition of Victory” or “Can tell the definition of Victory so clear”
3. Linguistic device (sound parallelism): At the end of each line in first stanza, Sweetest, Succeed, Nectar, Need.
4. Chiasmus: First and last stanza focus on the defeated while the middle stanza focuses on the victor.
5. Meter: Sevens and sixes meter (except for middle stanza).

Good work. You have a good eye for details. We can build on this foundation. In point one, I would say "ellipsis" rather than "copula." Copula means leaving out the "be"-verb by setting the subject and subjective complement next to each other: "George hero" rather than "George is a hero."
