Here we are comparing a boy with an angel but without using like or as.

Metaphoris used.
Here we are comparing Mrs. Java with dragon but again without using like or as.
33. The lonely lighthouse vigilantly shined its light.

Here we are saying <em><u>Lonely</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u> </u></em>to a lighthouse. Lonely is a human quality or emotion but lighthouse is non-human. So, when we give quality of a human to something non-living or non-human it is called Personification.
34. I wandered Lonely as a cloud.
Similieis used.
Here we are comparing ourself with cloud but this time it is with the help of as.
35. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
