In this excerpt from act iii of shakespeare’s macbeth, which rhetorical device is used in the underlined words? macbeth: it will have blood; they say, blood will have blood: stones have been known to move, and trees to speak; augurs, and understood relations, have by magot-pies, and choughs, and rooks, brought forth the secret'st man of blood.—what is the night? (act iii, scene iv) a. biblical allusion b. apostrophe c. personification d. simile

In Shakespeare's Macbeth the underlined portion shows personification,

Ex, blood will have blood, blood is not alive, but in the presence of this writing it is giving the feeling as if it is alive.

C) Personification.

Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to non human objects (or animals). In the given excerpt from Act III of "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare, we can see examples of personification in the phrases "blood will have blood," "stones have been known to move, and trees to speak," this is personification because it is giving blook, stones, and trees (non human objects) the abilities of having blood, moving, and speaking, respectively (human characteristics).

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
