- Line 2: "The sea was a raging monster in the night,"Metaphor

- Line 4: "The ancient clock sneezed on the dusty wall."Personification
Cevap
Line 1 matches Alliteration, Line 2 matches Metaphor, Line 3 matches Simile, and Line 4 matches Personification.
Line 1 contains the repeated consonant sound /w/ ('wind whistled', 'whispering'), which exemplifies alliteration. Line 2 directly equates the sea to a raging monster without using comparative conjunctions, forming a metaphor. Line 3 uses 'as bright as' to compare a smile to the sun, forming a simile. Line 4 attributes a human physiological reaction ('sneezed') to a clock, demonstrating personification.
