Explanation:
In the phrase "Like burnt-out torches by a sick man's bed" we have something being compared to something else. Even though we don't know what it is, we know it is compared to burnt-out torches.<u> The comparison was made with the help of a support word, "like".</u> Its purpose it to attribute one or more qualities of a burnt-out torch to something else by saying they are similar. <u>Comparisons that use support words are called </u><u>simile.</u> They are a very common figure of speech along with metaphors, with the difference that metaphors also make comparisons, but without using support words.
