It's not a personification, those are not living things that are given personalities. 
A metaphor is a<span> figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. So there is no action being applied to the stars, so its not a metaphor.
</span><span><span>Simile: a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind</span>: no....
</span><span>Symbol: a thing that represents or stands for something else: Yes!

Your answer is Symbol, hope this helps!

it's actually NOT symbol

i would say it's either metaphor or personification. personally, try personification because it is a TYPE of METAPHOR in which NONLIVING or NONHUMAN things are given HUMAN CHARACTERISTICS OR ABILITIES.

stars, love, brotherhood?

a metaphor is a comparison of two unlike things that does not use comparison words, one thing directly represents another

honestly up to you, it could be either but i'm leaning more to personification...

"Him" is the indirect object.

"Lena" is the subject, the person performing the action. "Tell" is the verb, the action performed. "The truth" is the direct object, the recipient of the action. "Him" is affected by the action.

"Overlook a space of flowers,

And silent isle imbowers

The Lady of Shalott".
