In this excerpt from the passage, the author uses personification to describe the change in weather. and as my reverie softened down to a sadder and sadder pathos, the shrieking of the winds outside softened to a wail, the angry beating of the rain against the panes diminished to a tranquil patter,… how do these lines contribute to the meaning of the passage?

a as the speaker reflects on meaningful memories, the violent weather subsides, creating an overall tone of calm and relief.
b as the speaker is troubled by thoughts of the past, the weather worsens, creating an overall tone of misery and distress.
c when the speaker is able to enjoy the comfort of his room, the weather becomes pleasant, foreshadowing better times ahead.
d when the speaker returns to the shelter of his room, the severe weather increases, building tension in anticipation of what is to come.
