I believe that the most prominent figurative language element in this excerpt is D. personification.
Personification is when non-human entities have human abilities or qualities. So, every pine and fir and hemlock wore ermine... 
It's not simile, as simile is comparison using words such as like or as. Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant, so that's also incorrect. Synecdoche is a form of a metaphor, so it's not that either. Hyperbole is exaggeration, so that is incorrect as well.

What do each of these quotes mean?<br>​
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

"Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves." - Abraham Lincoln

This means that if you deny freedom to another, you yourself can't have it.

"You may choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know." - William Wilberforce

Honestly, I'm a little confused on this too but I think it means that when you know or see something, you can't run from the fact you do or did.

"You can't hold a man down without staying down with him." - Booker T. Washington.

This is a quote Booker T. Washington made about Respect. If you think about it, it kind of opens a new door on what the quote might mean.

I think it means to push another down, you need to push yourself down as well. You can't keep them down and walk above them, as all people are equal.

I hope this helped! Have a great week.
