Read the poem given below and answer the questions that follow by selecting the correct/most appropriate options :

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

Name the figure of speech used in lines 3 and 4.

Correct Answer: Personification

In lines 3 and 4 of the poem:
"A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;"

The figure of speech used is Personification.

Explanation:
Personification is a literary device in which non-human objects, animals, or ideas are given human qualities, characteristics, or emotions.

In these lines, the tree is described as having a "hungry mouth" that presses against the earth, attributing human desires and physical actions to a tree. Additionally, the earth is described as having a "sweet flowing breast," giving it mother-like human attributes. Because human physical traits and actions are attributed to the tree and the earth, the figure of speech is Personification.
