Metaphor
"Confounded with the Crowd of various Thoughts, / And stiff'ning with Amaze, the Hero stood, / In Silence deep."
Metaphor in Context
Confounded with the Crowd of various Thoughts,
And stiff'ning with Amaze, the Hero stood,
In Silence deep: within his Bosom boils
Disdainful Shame, and Grief to Madness wrought,
And Love inflam'd with Rage, and conscious Worth.--
(I, p. 43)
And stiff'ning with Amaze, the Hero stood,
In Silence deep: within his Bosom boils
Disdainful Shame, and Grief to Madness wrought,
And Love inflam'd with Rage, and conscious Worth.--
