Read the excerpt from “The New Colossus" by Emma Lazarus: From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame."

What type of figurative language did Laz use in the excerpt?

•Onomatopoeia
•Simile
•Alliteration
•Personification

•Personification.

Explanation:

Personification is the giving of human attributes to non-living things. This means that non-animate things, ideas, etc. are given human characteristics making them seem alive.

In the given lines from her poem "The New Colossus," Emma Lazarus used the figurative language of personification. Here, she describes the Statue of Liberty as a living mother, having "mild eyes". This personification is also seen in the use of the pronoun "her" in "her beacon-hand", referring to the lamp/ torch that the statue holds.

Thus, the correct answer is personification.
