Which type of figurative language is found in lines 6 and 7?

A.) Symbol
2.) Metaphor
3.) Personification
4.) Simile.

I believe that the answer is metaphor. (Comparing two things not using like or as.) However, it could be personification. ( Giving human characteristics to something nonhuman.)

I will be giving 15 points for the person who answers.

It is personification.

The flowers were given the human characteristic of breathing and being stifling. There is no comparison made because the air is simply described as sweet. 

Stifling is associated with breathing because it means suffocating or stop breathing. When you stifle, it means you hold your breath.
