The correct option is A.

Parallelism refers to the construction of sentences by using elements that are grammatically identical in structure, meaning or sound. Authors usually use parallelism in their works in order to draw the readers' attention to the similarity or the differences of ideas by the way they arrange them in the sentence. In the passage given above, Baldwin used parallelism in order to emphasize the things that are important and the things that are not.

What rhetorical effect does the personification of the word Prudence have in the following excerpt from the Declaration of Indep
meriva

Answer:The rhetorical effect that the impersonation of the word "Prudence" provoked was the Ethos.

Explanation:

Personification is a figure of speech that provides human characteristics to inanimate objects or beings. In the excerpt from the Declaration of Independence, the personification allowed that the "prudencia" that is an inanimate being could dictate something.

Prudence is the ability of some people to analyze existing variables and evaluate their possible consequences before making a decision. When the author used the personification in prudence, he imposed that prudence be seen as an authority, which must be heard and its precepts followed.

In this way the author appealed to the rhetorical Ethos effect. An appeal to ethos depends on the credibility, competence and reputation of the person making the argument, in this case, the person is the "prudence". A person considered as an authority on the subject she is talking about would make such an argument. The argument is primarily based on relying on the opinion or analysis of an authority or expert.
