    Verbal irony.

    Explanation:

    A verbal irony is a literary device in which a speaker or the writer speaks or writes something contradictory to what it truly means. It occurs when the speaker's statement contrast to the literal meaning.

    This given statement is an example of verbal irony because the speaker does not literally mean when he states "the wife of my bosom." It is because in the previous statement we know that he had murdered his wife.

    So, the correct answer is the third option.
