Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A metaphysical conceit refers to an association or comparison between a spiritual entity or aspect and a human individual. The most common relationships in metaphysical poetry are related to the infinity of the heaven bodies in the universe and human attributes of beauty; eyes compared to stars is a conventionally stated metaphor for instance. Accordingly, we can say that a metaphysical conceit is a complex metaphoric relationship.
