Sonnet 18 by william shakespeare

shall i compare thee to a summer’s day?
thou art more lovely and more temperate.
rough winds do shake the darling buds of may,
and summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
5sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
and often is his gold complexion dimmed;
and every fair from fair sometime declines,
by chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;
but thy eternal summer shall not fade,
10 nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
when in eternal lines to time thou grow’st.
so long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
so long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

which statement best describes the type of figurative language in line 5 and 6?
a) shakespeare uses hyperbole to describe the sun's actions on a summer's day.
b) shakespeare personifies the sun as if it had an eye and a complexion.
c) shakespeare understates how much power the sun has over relationships.
