Is Shakespeare's "For My Young Friends Who Are Afraid" poem an example of personification or a metaphor?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Well, personification is adding human attributes to non-living things. EX: "The sun glared angrily at me." The sun isn't able to "glare angrily" so therefore that is personification. Hope this helps. :)

Answers

The reason characters act the way they do is called personality and instinct. Basically the way characters react is half to do with instinct and half to do with personality. It's their instinct which causes them to react in the way that they do but their personality plays a part in what approach they take in a particular situation.
