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.
