The use of first, second, or third person is known as an author's B. narrative point of view. Authors choose whether they want to tell their story using the pronouns I, you, or he/she/it/they - depending on how close they want to be to their readers and how subjective or objective they want their narrators to be. The point of view in a piece of literature can be an important stylistic characteristic of a writer too - some authors are known for writing in the first person, and differentiate from most of other writers who often use the third person.

The answer is actually b. explanation: lines that signify human-like characteristics: “a half a dozen kissed the eves”raindrops don’t usually ‘kiss’ anything, as it is a human action. lines that signify playfulness: “and made the gables laugh” a gable is the part of a wall that encloses a pitched roof, so it is certainly not living and cannot really laugh. this is a human characteristic and signifies playfulness.
