Read this stanza from the poem "Dreams," by Paul Laurence Dunbar.
Which figure
of speech is used in the bold line?
What dreams we have and how they fly
Like rosy clouds
across the sky;
Of wealth, of fame, of sure success,
Of love that comes to cheer and bless;
And how they whither, how they fade,
The waning wealth, the jilting jade-
The fame that for a moment
gleams,
Then flies forever, -dreams, ah-dreamsl
