Answer: C) Personification.

Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to non human objects (or animals), in order to give an example of something or to create an image in the readers' minds. In the given lines we can see an example of personification (corresponding to option C), because it says that the turtle-dove (non human object) listens and gloats (human characteristics).
