Explanation:

Question 4 (Figure of Speech)
Brief Explanations

The line "Death stands above me, whispering low" gives human characteristics (standing, whispering) to Death (a non - human concept). This is the definition of personification, where non - human entities are given human - like traits.

Brief Explanations

In the line "The fair breeze blew, the white foam flew", the words "blew" and "flew" rhyme. They rhyme within a single line of the verse, which is the definition of internal rhyme (rhyme that occurs within a single line of poetry).

Brief Explanations

Looking at the lines "For while I sang—ah swift and strange / Love passed and touched me on the brow. / And I who made so many songs / Am silent now", we check the end words of the lines. "brow" and "now" rhyme. This is end rhyme, as the rhyme occurs at the end of different lines.
