The answer is I.
I hope it helped!!!:)
Phillis Wheatley’s poem “To His Excellency General Washington” is as unique as the poet herself. The poem was sent to George Washington, the newly appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Armies of North America, in October of 1775, well before American Independence was declared in 1776.
I think the poem in question is actually "Ashes of Life" by Edna St. Vincent Millay.
If your question pertains to the subject of the poem as a whole, I believe the correct answer to your question is B. metaphor.
Metaphor means that a thing is not to be regarded in its literal sense, but as representative of something else. In this case, there are no ashes in the poem. But they are a metaphor of what's left of her life now that her beloved has abandoned her. We can also take this as an example of imagery, suggesting that she was burning with love, and now only ashes have remained.
However, if you take a closer look at some of the lines, such as "<span>Love has gone and left me", it is a personification - giving human attributes to animals, abstract notions, or non-living things.</span>
It should be noted that the theme of the story is that human beings are the ones to be feared because the creatures that we fear are more afraid of us.

What is a theme?</h3>
A theme simply means the main idea that's contained in a story. It simply means what the author wants the readers to know in the article or story.
In this case, when Colm found the nest, he lifted the egg and was afraid of the mother bird. This implies the theme that human beings are the ones to be feared because the creatures that we fear are more afraid of us.
