Answer:

how hot the spear actually is.

Explanation:

In this simile, Homer is comparing something familiar, which is the way that an iron arm is made by molding it and then inserting it into a cold tub of water, with something unfamiliar to the reader (this is the basic functioning of the Homeric simile), which is how they attacked the cyclops with a spike that was heated so that, when it entered the Cyclops’ eyeball, the spear hissed just like hot iron does as it enters a cold tub of water.

The tone is communicated according to the passage through figurative speech.

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

In the passage, it can be seen that the author used similes. For example, "How long I sat beside Calypso I don't know hunger and wariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west, I splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care."

Also, the passage uses personification. For example, "When I told her I had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places, and said, "it's God's mercy ye ever get out."

Therefore, in conclusion, the authors communicate through figurative language according to this passage.
