Metaphor
"But I have other visions still more dreadful--spectres, indeed, that have long stampt indelible impressions on my heart and mind."
Metaphor in Context
Why do I still behold my Lucy's face, see the bright drop stand trembling in her eye, or silent steal along her blooming cheek, drawn forth by pity for her Juliana? Why does my brother's form appear before me? why does contempt shoot from his angry eyes even through my sinking heart? But I have other visions still more dreadful--spectres, indeed, that have long stampt indelible impressions on my heart and mind.
