    Question



    "The soul was like a star, and dwelt apart."
    Choose the correct option of the figure of speech used in the above line:

    A.

    Personification

    B.

    Metaphor

    C.

    Pun

    D.

    Simile

    Correct option is D


    The phrase "The soul was like a star" directly compares the soul to a star using "like," which is a characteristic of a simile. A simile uses "like" or "as" to create a comparison between two different things. Hence, option (d) Simile is correct.
