The phrase "a multitude, a million, a mischief" that might appear in a sentence, or perhaps show up in a poem or other creative work, makes explicit use of the literary device of alliteration. Alliteration is the combination of words that have similar sounds, whether at their start, middle, or end. In this case, the "m" in each word is being used alliteratively. The phrase is also an example of parallelism, with three nouns being placed next to each other with an indefinite article attached to each.
