What figure of speech is used in this line from walt whitman's poem "i hear america singing"?

i hear america singing, the varied carols i hear

a) anaphora
b) personification
c) onomatopoeia
d) alliteration
e) antithesis

B) Personification

Explanation:

Personification is a figure of speech that takes place when a non-human element such as an idea, abstract quality, an element of nature, animal, emotion, event, country or inanimate object is given human characteristics like pondering, talking, writing, and singing. The line uses this figure of speech because "America", the nation, can not literally sing; here, the author is "personifying" this non-human element.

you didn't provide the passage.

seeing as this is your first question on i can see why you may have not known that you need to provide the passage.

however, you can either repost this question (providing the passage this time)
