In the poem When in the Chronicle of Wasted Time’ the poet uses personification for poetic effect. Here are some of the examples.

“antique pen would have expressed“. In this phrase, the poet is referring to the poets of old times. The pen is thus personified.
“beauty making beautiful old rhymes”. Here the word beauty is personified. It refers to the beautiful human whose description makes the old poems beautiful.
