We can explain the simile in the excerpt in the following manner:

The simile in the excerpt serves to <u>show readers that the Cyclops is extremely </u><u>strong</u>, and that lifting a heavy rock is no big deal for him.

  • The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to the epic poem "The Odyssey".
  • 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.
