Simile: "across the moon like a prison bar"
Alliteration: "struck out by a steed flying fearless and fleet"
Personification: "the watchful night wind, as it went, creeping from tent to tent"
Assonance: "on then rising tide like a bridge of boats"

How is the first person narrator limited in a story?​
kicyunya [14]

A first-person narrator is usually a character in the very story he is telling. For that reason, he can only tell the audience the things he knows, which can be limited or erroneous, or his assumptions, which can be quite biased. ... They lack impartiality since the story being told is influenced by their feelings

The old swimmin hole the first stanza of the poem
melamori03 [73]
Oh! the old swimmin'-hole! whare the crick so still and deep 
Looked like a baby-river that was laying half asleep, 
And the gurgle of the worter round the drift jest below 
Sounded like the laugh of something we onc't ust to know 
Before we could remember anything but the eyes 
Of the angels lookin' out as we left Paradise; 
But the merry days of youth is beyond our controle, 
And it's hard to part ferever with the old swimmin'-hole.
