What is the primary purpose of the couplet in this
sonnet?
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.
Rise, restive Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make Time's spoils despised every where.
Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life;
So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife.
- "Sonnet 100,
William Shakespeare

Answer:
c. At four o’clock the tables folded like great butterflies back through the paneled walls.
Explanation:
Personification is when an inanimate object is given the characteristics of a living thing. This means that when something that is not alive like stones or wood are given living attributes, making them look like they are alive, is known as personification.
Among the given examples, personification is seen in the sentence about the tables. Here, the tables are personified as <em>"butterflies</em>", capable of folding themselves like butterflies. The speaker states that <em>"the tables folded like great butterflies"</em>, which is realistically impossible for a table to fold by itself.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
