Bruce found a mossy spot beneath a tree and curled up, but he never took his eyes off Simon. Simon’s stomach grumbled, and he wished that he hadn’t consumed all of his provisions earlier in the day.

What figures of speech do you find in Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening?Whose woods these are I think I know.   His house is in the village though;   He will not see me stopping here   To watch his woods fill up with snow.   My little horse must think it queer   To stop without a farmhouse near   Between the woods and frozen lake   The darkest evening of the year.   He gives his harness bells a shake   To ask if there is some mistake.   The only other sound’s the sweep   Of easy wind and downy flake.   The woods are lovely, dark and deep,   But I have promises to keep,   And miles to go before I sleep,   And miles to go before I sleep.Select one:a.simile and personificationb.onomatopoeia and metaphorc.personification and metaphord.simile and hyperboleClear my choice
