The answer is A: "Why, then, O brawling love!".

Personification is the representation of something nonhuman or an abstract quality in the guise of a human characteristic.

In the answer above, Shakespeare is making the abstract quality of love become quarrelsome, thus meaning that love is tumultuous and rowdy just like a human combatant would be in the wake of a fight.
