Read the poem in answer the question A Noiseless Patient Spider by Walt Whitman

A noiseless patient spider,
I mark'd where on a little promontory it stood isolated,
Mark'd how to explore the vacant vast surrounding,
It launch'd forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself,
Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them.
And you O my soul where you stand,
Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them,
Till the bridge you will need be form'd, till the ductile anchor hold,
Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O my soul.

Walt Whitman uses :
A - Personification
B - Analogy
C - Hyperbole

To show that :

A - Spiders threads are stronger and more sensitive than a persons soul.

B - A persons soul reaches out to connect like a spider threads do.

C - Both spiders and people have souls that they try try hard to protect.
