Read the stanza below from the poem “Ballad of Birmingham” by Dudley Randall and answer the question that follows.

She has combed and brushed her night-dark hair,
And bathed rose petal sweet,
And drawn white gloves on her small brown hands,
And white shoes on her feet.



Which literary technique does the stanza demonstrate?

metaphor
personification
sensory imagery
simile

I believe it would be Sensory Imagery due to the fact that there is no comparison using like or as (Simile) nor is there any form of Personification, and there also isn't a Metaphor
