Read the excerpt from "Morte d'Arthur” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson.So saying, from the ruin’d shrine he steptAnd in the moon athwart the place of tombs,Where lay the mighty bones of ancient men,Old knights, and over them the sea-wind sangShrill, chill, with flakes of foam.

The phrase “the sea-wind sang” gives the wind a human ability, so it is personification. This makes the scene at the tombs feel more vivid and atmospheric, especially alongside the “shrill, chill” wind and flakes of foam. The personification does not mainly explain the men’s importance or Arthur’s intentions.
