How do we start the problem? What is it asking?
In lines 9-12, symbolism is applied through the image of fire. The “glowing” fire signifies the narrator’s dimming youth, as its dull embers will soon expire and turn to “ashes.”
In line 4, Shakespeare uses personification, "sweet birds sang". Birds cannot sing but he was telling us that the birds were chirping and it sounded like a song.
In line 6 and 7, Shakespeare uses personification again. He says, "As after sunset fadeth in the west; Which by and by black night doth take away". This is a personification because the night cannot "take away the sun.
All of these figurative language examples make the poem easier to read and visualize what Shakespeare is saying.

Explanation:
if the stone was some sort of reward then b would make more sense
if the stone was something precious or valuable to someone and have to trust it to someone and no one was an option then it would be a, but that kinda sounds weird so i thought it was probably b. another reason why it's probably b is cause c doesn't make much sense unless somebody stole it or something, which leaves d, but that doesn't sound like a good theme or lesson cause if it was something helpful you shouldn't keep it to yourself
