I think it would be a metaphor, because this phrase is probably being used to describe a person, not an actual snake. 

Do you know how the phrase is being used?

The poetic device in the phrase "That Cruel Serpent" is a metaphor, since it doesn't refer to a serpent. It refers to a person who has such characteristics.

A metaphor is a figure of speech that depicts an object or action in a way that isn’t literally true, but helps explain an idea or make a comparison.

This poetic device states that one thing is another thing and it cannot be taken literally.

Metaphors are employed in poetry, literature, and anytime someone wants to add some color to their language

Bad White [126]

Answer:

In line 28 we can see a shift in the speaker's focus to speculation about the limits that nature has.

Explanation:

In line 28, the speaker's approach changes and he begins to address nature in a more influential and profound way, showing the limits of it. This is to show that even something great like nature, has fineness, that is, it has limitations. This can be applied to the physical sense of nature, or even to the subjective and more conceptual sense of the effect of nature.
