Question

Ead the excerpt below from "Blow, Blow Thou Winter Wind" and answer the question that follows.

Blow, blow, thou winter wind

Thou art not so unkind

As man's ingratitude;

Thy tooth is not so keen,
Which of the following words is an example of personification?

blow
tooth
man
winter

Answer 1

i think it is tooth as a tooth cannot be “not so keen” as is not a human with feelings. i do not think it is wind as wind makes a blowing sound and it is not as metaphorical to say the wind is blowing.

Answer 2

I’m pretty sure it’s blow why: personification is a characteristic to something nonhuman example; the leaves “danced” on the wind
