What figurative language is present in these lines? (simile, metaphor, onomatopoeia, hyperbole, and/or personification)
"Love is and was my king and lord"

Also, I know this is a metaphor, but I think it could also be hyperbole. Is that correct?

No

Explanation:

It could not be a hyperbole because there is no exaggeration. It could be a simile though because the line is using "is" to compare love to a king and lord. I don't understand how it could be a metaphor. Also, the question doesn't seem like it allows two answers.

recent brain research has shown some surprising benefits as a result of formal musical training. learning to play a musical instrument appears to develop parts of the brain that can even influence academic results. the studies indicate that the earlier a child begins training, the more benefits there are. one such study showed that children who began musical studies before the age of seven had a more developed brain in the region where language production and auditory processing take place. scientists believe there is mounting evidence to show that early musical training can improve brain function.
