    Metaphors: “Their eyes as brilliant and as wide as the night”, “Their manes the leaping ire of the wind”. These metaphors convey the etherealness of the atmosphere at that point of time. The poet uses these metaphors to once again compare simple objects with mysterious, eerie elements, suggestive of a dark night ahead. He uses these metaphors as a medium to chill the reader, and make the reader believe that something sinister has been going on in the poem. 12.…
