which line from the poem best supports the answer to the previous question?

a.) line 1
b.) line 24
c.) line 38

Answer 1

I don't know the poem. Personification involves attribution of human characteristics to non-human beings or objects. Trees inviting you to sit under them is an example of personification, since trees cannot issue invitations.
