Final Review 12/11 Homeric Simile A detailed comparison in the form of a simile that is many lines in length in epic poetry. Example: "Think of a catch that fishermen haul in to a halfmoon bay in a fine meshed net from the white caps of the sea: how all are poured out on the sand, in throes for the salt sea, twitching their cold lives away in Helios' fiery air: so lay the suitors heaped on one another." (The Test of the Bow, Line ).

Final Review 12/12 Hyperbole Is an over exaggeration in writing or poetry. For example: “Godsake, Captain! Why bait the beast again? Let him alone! That tidal wave he made on the first throw all but beached us!” (New Coasts and Poseidon’s Son, Lines ). Metaphor: Comparing two unlike things in prose and poetry. “What evil wind blew in this pest! Nudge my table, will you? Egyptian whips are sweet to what you’ll come to here, you nosing rat, making your pitch to everyone!” (The Beggar at the Manor, Lines 3-8).
