I believe the correct answer is hyperbole.
Hyperbole is a rhetorical figure of speech which show some kind of exaggeration - in this particular example, the hyperbole is found in the words 'an hundred years.' This is so because the poet won't really spend a hundred years to praise the woman's eyes, but is rather exaggerating a bit.
how does the author succeed in promoting the reader's sympathy for the little girls? Mansfield evokes sympathy for the little kelveys. she sarcastically says they are "very nice company for other people's children!". she also describes the bedraggled, ragged clothing.
