Which figure of speech is used in “Where words come out from the depth of truth”?

AMetaphor

BPersonification

CSimile

DHyperbole

Answer:

B. Personification

Read Explanation:

  • The line “Where words come out from the depth of truth” uses personification because "words" are given human-like qualities—they are described as coming from the "depth of truth," as if truth has a physical depth from which words emerge.

  • This enhances the poem’s message about honesty and integrity in speech.
