    Personification

    Explanation:

    The personification represents the figure of language capable of attributing to irrational beings or to inanimate objects, actions, qualities and feelings that are proper to human beings.

    In the phrase "The Wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn's being," the wind that is an inanimate being, gains the ability to be wild, which is a human behavior.
