Answer:
D. simile
Explanation:
The literary device used in this quote from Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is simile.
From the quote, there is comparison of "the agents that have power to shake and pluck" with "a wind that tosses curtains of a pavilion". The comparison is carried out with the use of "as".
Simile is a figure of speech used in the comparison of two things with use of "like" and "as". It makes the comparison more emphatic and vivid. Simile is different from metaphor because it uses <em>as</em> and <em>like</em> in comparing things whereas metaphor doesn't use <em>as</em> and <em>like </em>to compare things.
