personification

Lub "representation".

IMHO w wierszu Donne'a pchła jest nie ucieleśnieniem, lecz uosobieniem miłości, a nawet nie tyle miłości, ile aktu płciowego:

"Thou know'st that this cannot be said
A sin, nor shame, nor loss of maidenhead"
...
"This flea is you and I, and this
Our marriage bed, and marriage temple is".
