Answer:
A) epic simile
Explanation:
An epic simile is a figurative language that compares one element to another (thing, animal or person) while employing the words "as" or "like" and that is developed over several lines of verse. Its aim is to make the writing more colorful and interesting and serve as decoration.
The passage is an example of epic simile because it describes Athena through several verse lines by comparing it to "a bird in soaring flight", and employing a simile because it uses the word "like" to compare.
