Quick answers:
1 = Oxymoron
2 = Metaphor
3 = Hyperbole
4 = Similie
Explanations:
- Number 1 is an oxymoron because saying “O brawling love, oh loving hate” contradict each other.
- Number 2 is a metaphor because it says “Love is a smoke made with the fumes of sighs”, which is describing one thing as another thing.
- Number 3 is a hyperbole because he is excessively describing her as amazing like when he says “Ne’er saw her math, since first the world began.” Which is an exaggeration
- Number 4 is a simile because it describes her hanging around as a rich jewel in an Ethiop’s ear. This is a simile and not a metaphor because similes use “like” or “as”, demonstrated in this question.
