hey buddy

personification
: a poetic/ literary device 
in this inanimate / non living things are displayed as to have life / human characters and feelings.

its like portraying a brook talking about itself , how it flows and what things it sees and feels. ( refer. The Brook by Alfred Lord Tennyson )
____________________________________________________________
 In the poem not marble nor the gilded monuments , Shakespeare writes 

.... unswept stone besmeared with slu.ttish time ....

"slu.ttish time " 


slu.t is an immoral person 

the word slu.ttish is used to describe Time ..
and hence "personified ".
