Answer:

Simile: "as swift in motion as a ball"

Allusion: "And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings."

Metaphor: "Therefore do nimble-pinion'd doves draw love,"

Explanation:

The scene described above reports the moment when J * sends a nurse to make sure Romeo is ready for the wedding. Nurse takes too long to bring news which makes J * nervous, impatient and apprehensive. To highlight these feelings, Shakespeare uses some figures of speech such as:

Simile - "as swift in motion as a ball": The simile allows the author to compare two things that are very different from each other and that do not have a well-established relationship.

Allusion - "And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.": The allusion allows a reference to be made in something that exists in another work, or universe, or even a reference to a person, music, book, among other things.

Which statement identifies the central idea of langston hughes hidden influence on MLK
gtnhenbr [62]
We need examples of statements unless you’re talking generally then there is way too much information to cover for this questions but “Hold fast to dreams, For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird, That cannot fly.” Is quote said by Langston Hughes. You can interpret this to have meaning to MLK because he literally writes a momentous speech called “I have a Dream”.
