From the options provided, the one which is not a kenning is the last one, whaleroad. In order to be a kenning, whaleroad, should have a hyphen between whale and road.

A kenning is a sort of circumlocution which adopts the form of a compound that usess figurative language in place of a more concrete single-word noun. Kennings consist of two words, and are usually joined by a hyphen.

Identify the figurative language used in these stanzas of Amy Lowell's \"In Excelsis.\". . In complete sentences, explain how it

Natalija [7]

The author uses metaphor, personification, hyperbole, and onomatopeias as it is explained below.

A metahpor is used to make readers understand the connection between the two words but doesn't literally make sense. For example: a) You are frozen as the clouds, b) You are far and sweet as the high clouds.

Personification which means to give human characteristics to inanimate objects, example: I dare touch the rim of your brightness.

Hyperbole: is an outrageous exaggeration that emphasizes a point. It tends toward the ridiculous or the funny. In this sense, the author states: I leap beyond the winds, For my throat is keen as a sword. Sharpened on a hone of ivory.
Onomatopoeia. My throat sings the joy of my eyes
