Read the lines below from Phillis Wheatley's poem "His Excellency General Washington." See mother earth her offspring's fate bemoan,
And nations gaze at scenes before unknown!
What type of figurative language does Wheatley use in these lines, as well as in most of her poems?
A. allusion
B. hyperbole
C. simile
D. personification

Explanation:

I would say none of them, but I know that  isn't correct.

It is not a similie: there's no like or as.

It is not an allusion. What is it alluding to?

It is not a hyperbole. The statement is not exaggerated in any way.

There is only personification left, and I would say that mother earth personifies all mothers who have lost sons. It is also true that nations cannot really gaze: the population of the nations can. So if you stretch it a bit, you have 2 personifications.

there were a lot of changes in wars like that and thing evolved
