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.

Which of these transition words would be appropriate for indicating time?
aleksklad [387]
For indicating time, the best answer is C- During, because this word tells a reader when an action is taking place. 

Again implies that something has been done before, and is being done again, but does not imply <em>when</em> it is being re-done. 

Furthermore is a word with a similar meaning to "Also", so it is not connected to the idea of time. 

Besides generally means "other than" which, again, has no connection to time.
