Simile: <span>a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g., </span>as brave as a lion<span>, </span>crazy like a fox<span> ).
Metaphors: </span>a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable."“I had fallen through a trapdoor of depression,”
Personification: <span>the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form. 

1. Like a smile full of teeth
2. It's bridges quake with fear
3. The lights sliding from house to house
Those are three examples, their are more in the poem. Try to come up with the rest</span>

Name of characters who played a role in Makhaya's healing?
ira [324]

What might be the significance of Caedmon being a simple cowherd?
lara [203]

As Bede, the writer, was a devout Christian, he used many references to Christianity in his work. Jesus Christ was considered a shepherd to his flock as he led people out of sinful lives into sin-free lives. Similarly, Caedmon is said to have led people away from their vices and toward the path to heaven through his song. A cowherd was also a person at the bottom of the social ladder. This fact might be meant to imply that through divine grace, even a man from a humble background may change many lives.
