Excerpt:

"Bru-h Lizard and Bru-h Rabbit” from The People Could Fly.

Well, that lizard was a hard worker. He had a big sword he use to cut his crop. Sword knew how to work by herself and it cut so fine, there was nothin left, once somethin was cut. Bru-h Lizard speakin words to the sword and Sword do all the work. That's how it went.

Answer:

The lizard uses a sword to cut crops.

Explanation:

A figures of speech is also referred to as figurative language and it can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by writers, authors or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or literary work (write-ups).

In English literature, the main purpose of the figures of speech (figurative language) is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of a literary work. Some examples of the figures of speech (figurative language) used in literature are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Personification involves intentionally attributing life, human characteristics (qualities) or feelings and emotions to animate and inanimate objects i.e non-living things.

An example of personification in the excerpt above is, The lizard uses a sword to cut crops. It's practically impossible for a lizard or any other animal to use a sword in cutting crops because they lack the sense, ability and composure to do so.
