Read the following poem and answer the question that follows. "I like to see it Lap the Miles" by Emily Dickinson
I like to see it lap the miles,
And lick the valleys up,
And stop to feed itself at tanks;
And then, prodigious, step
Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads,
And then a quarry pare
To fit its sides, and crawl between,
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza;
Then chase itself down hill
And neigh like Boanerges;
Then, punctual as a star,
Stop-docile and omnipotent-
At its own stable door
This poem describes a train as if it were a horse. What literary device does the poet use in this poem?
Misery
Extended simile
Apostrophe
Extended metaphor
