English

That particular passage has numerous literary devices. Alliteration in the "Beams so Bright" and personification in "when Nature made Her...". The entire passage is a rhetorical question and it can be answered in he next passage with simile. Sydney answers the rhetorical question with a simile, saying her she is like a skillful painter and is like the sun. The fact that her black eyes shine bright is an oxymoron because black is dark and has no light with which to shine.

The answer is C (metaphor)

It wouldn't be simile because a simile would use like or as

It wouldn't be parallelism because its not using similar phrases or clauses

It wouldn't be hyperbole because hyperbole is meant to not be taking literal or not meant...overkill.
