Which figure of speech is used in the bold line?

Devotion

{The heart can think of no devotion}
greater than being shore to the ocean—
Holding the curve of one position,
Counting an endless repetition.


alliteration


metaphor


personification


onomatopoeia

Answer 1

personification is the answer

Answer 2

personification

Step-by-step explanation:

Personification is a figure of speech in which you attribute human characteristics, actions, or behaviors to something that is not able to act in such a way for not being human. In this case, the heart is thinking ("The heart can think of no devotion") but hearts are not able to think.
