a
personification
b
simile
c
metaphor
d
hyperbole

Answer 1

The phrase is an example of **c) metaphor**. It uses figurative language to convey deeper meanings, such as "the knees of the Living God" and "the bondages of the sea of death," without making a direct comparison using "like" or "as," which would indicate a simile.
