The figure of speech used in the phrase "babes of the sea" is (D) a metaphor. A metaphor is a figure of speech that consists in a comparison. This comparison is made between two things that are not related but have a certain characteristic in common. In this case, "babes" is not used in its original meaning but the author refers to his feeling of insignificance when compared to the nature.
