Which literary device does Sir Philip Sidney use in these lines from his sonnet sequence Astrophil and Stella?

When Nature made her chief work, Stella’s eyes,
In colour black why wrapp’d she beams so bright?

The correct answer is C. metaphor.

"Bright beams" that Nature has wrapped in black are Stella's eyes. In a way, it is also a simile, but every metaphor is a contracted simile (without "like").

There are other literary devices in this passage as well: contrast (black - bright), rhetorical question (one that doesn't have an answer, or an answer is obvious)...
