Homework Help: English

I asked this question a couple of days days ago and noone was really sure.

"Let me in,"

Said the pin.

Which is this an example of:

1. assonance
2. a metaphor
3. alliteration
4. personification

I know it's either assonance or
alliteration.

4. personification

A pin cannot speak.

Are you sure it's personification?

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Yes, personification, as Manny says. Since you are working on poetry, I'm sure you will appreciate the following site:

Yes, I am sure.

Now that SraJMcGin confirms it you yourself can be sure.
