Explanation: a metaphor is a figure of speech that consists in making a direct comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, without using the words "like" or "as" to make the comparison. It is often used to create an image in the readers' minds. In the given passage from Act II, Scene 1, in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare we can see an example of a metaphor when Helena says "I am your spaniel, and, Demetrius,  The more you beat me I will fawn on you" and it shows that she is desperate because she is willing to be treated like a dog as long as she can be near him.
