I would say, Simile because this compares the feeling of seeing the machine to being stabbed by a dozen awls. Similes use like or as to compare two different objects, so that is what leads me to believe this. It cannot be a symbol, because that does not represent anything. It cannot be personification because it does not take a nonliving object and give it human features. I would say that's it a metaphor, but it uses as, so I firmly believe that it is a simile..

This phrase is from the poem "The Future Glory" by John Trumbull. He was a renowned American poet who lived from 1750 to 1831. 
<span>This phrase is the last line in one of the stanzas in his poems. The poet starts the stanza with praises for the proverbial Queen. He describes her splendour and her  radiance. This phrase for the Queen suggests that the Queen is the ruler of all the empires but when she sees her own men who were fighting for her glory and rule injured, she becomes a nurse to them and brings them back to health.</span>
