    C. But no such roses see I in her cheeks

    Explanation:

    Metaphor is a language figure widely used to make comparisons by resemblance. It is the use of one word with the meaning of another. It is a kind of subjective, momentary comparison. It consists in the use of a word or an expression in an unusual sense, implicitly manifesting a similarity relationship between two terms, as can be observed in the phrase "But no such roses see I in her cheeks".
