Which of the following lines that shylock speaks in act 2: scene 5 is the best example of personification? ( the merchant of venice.

a but stop my house's ears, i mean my casements: / let not the sound of shallow foppery enter/ my sober house.

b fast bind, fast find, / a proverb never stale in thrifty mind.

c snail-slow in profit, and he sleeps by day / more than the wild-cat:

d there is some ill a-brewing towards my rest,

A .But stop my house's ears, I mean my casements:/ Let not the sound of shallow foppery enter/ my sober house.

Explanation:

Personification is a figure of speech that gives a non-human entity (such as an animal, an element of nature, a thing or an emotion) human attributes like pondering, thinking, writing, talking. Shylock uses this figure of speech when he gives the house (an object, a non-human entity) ears as well as the ability to hear (a human attribute that things do not have).
