Answer

Brief Explanations:

Personification is giving human - like qualities to non - human entities. In the option “The wind pulled the priest's brown Franciscan robe and swirled away the corn meal and pollen that had been sprinkled on the blanket”, the wind is described as performing the human actions of “pulling” and “swirling”, which are actions typically done by humans. The other options do not attribute human - like actions to non - human things. The first option describes the priest's action and the frozen ground, the second describes the priest's fingers and his action with the holy water lid, and the fourth describes the priest's feelings.

Answer:

The option: The wind pulled the priest's brown Franciscan robe and swirled away the corn meal and pollen that had been sprinkled on the blanket.
