Which literary device has been used in the underlined line?

Arise, my soul, on wings enraptur’d, rise
To praise the monarch of the earth and skies,
Whose goodness and beneficence appear
As round its centre moves the rolling year,
Or when the morning glows with rosy charms,
Or the sun slumbers in the ocean’s arms:
Of light divine be a rich portion lent
To guide my soul, and favour my intent.
(from “Thoughts on the Works of Providence” by Phillis Wheatley)

simile
imagery
personification
synecdoche
hyperbole

Respuesta :

Definitely personification.

Personification is giving non-living things living characteristics. e.g. sun slumbers.

Hope this helps!
