Read these lines from emily dickinsons "324" ("some keep the sabbath going to church"): some keep the sabbath going to church- i keep it, staying at home- with a bobolink for a chorister- and an orchard, for a dome- what is one purpose of the personification in this excerpt? a. to link two unlike concepts; a bird's chirp and a church choir. b. to compare the speaker to the sermon given at church. c. to indicate that the speaker does not believe in god. d. to make church seem like a peer to the speaker.

A. To link two unlike concepts; a bird's chirp and a church choir.

Explanation:

Personification is a figure of speech defined as attributing human characteristics to a non-human (animal, object, abstract notion etc.). Writers adopt this procedure, underlining the similarities of two primarily different concepts, in order to understand and depict one by the logic of the other.  

In this example it is the voice that represents the link between a bobolink and a chorister.
