Question

What figurative device is used to describe the city? I think the answer is A. allegory, but I'm not quite sure.

Answer 1

D) personification

Explanation:

The `color(red)("city")` is personified as a person who is `color(blue)("dozing")` and `color(blue)("slumbering")`.

For this to be an "allegory" it would need to be a "parable"; that is, it would need to be a story or an image that revealed some deeper truth or moral.
