the speaker is distressed about his fate, but when he thinks of his love, his condition improves.

the condition improving is then compared in a simile:

his mood improves and gets better "like to the lark at break of day " like a lark rising into the skies. the simile is comparing his mood to a lark soaring.

there's also examples of personification, sullen is an adjective that describes a human characteristic. once the poet establishes the simile, he extends the speaker's "mood" sings.  

hyperbole is exemplified by the idea of his mood improving enough to reach heaven's gate.
