Question

Which literary technique is used in this line?

"And this maiden she lived with no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me."

Question 6 options:

simile


hyperbole


metaphor


personification

Answer 1

I believe it's hyperbole because it isn't being compared to anything so it can't be a similie, it's not giving humane characteristics to non humane objects so it can't be personification, and it's not comparing two things by saying one thing is the other thing so it also can't be metaphor. Therefore it has to be Hyperbole
