- The Cyclops is a one-eyed giant and the son of the god Poseidon.
- A simile is a comparison made with the help of the words "like" or "as".
- In order to show how strong the Cyclops is, the narrator compares the way he lifts the big and heavy rock to capping a quiver.
- In other words, the narrator shows with that comparison (simile) that <u>lifting a heavy rock is something easy for the Cyclops to do</u>.
- That means the Cyclops is extremely strong.

To "persuade" means to convince someone to do something by arguing or reasoning with them. A persuasive speech is a type of speech in which the speaker tries to convince the audience to believe what they believe. The speaker cannot force his or her opinion on others. However, they can use certain words or express their opinion in such a way that hopefully causes others to accept their point of view.
