Can some one me find the metaphors? i need this is 16 pionts! read the passage. i have been frequently asked how i felt when i found myself in a free state. i have never been able to answer the question with any satisfaction to myself. it was a moment of the highest excitement i ever experienced. i suppose i felt as one may imagine the unarmed mariner to feel when he is rescued by a friendly man-of-war from the pursuit of a pirate. in writing to a dear friend, immediately after my arrival at new york, i said i felt like one who had escaped a den of hungry lions. this state of mind, however, very soon subsided; and i was again seized with a feeling of great insecurity and loneliness. i was yet liable to be taken back, and subjected to all the tortures of slavery. this in itself was enough to damp the ardor of my enthusiasm. but the loneliness overcame me. there i was in the midst of thousands, and yet a perfect stranger; without home and without friends, in the midst of thousands of my own brethren—children of a common father, and yet i dared not to unfold to any one of them my sad condition. i was afraid to speak to any one for fear of speaking to the wrong one, and thereby falling into the hands of money-loving kidnappers, whose business it was to lie in wait for the panting fugitive, as the ferocious beasts of the forest lie in wait for their prey. write one paragraph that identifies the metaphors in this passage. then explain why douglass uses those metaphors. what is the effect? what is douglass trying to explain or convey?

Write one paragraph that identifies the metaphors in this passage. A metaphor is a way of describing something and adding other things that can relate to give it almost that full feeling of what you are trying to say.

In this case Frederick Douglass Is describing slavery as him being lonely with alone the side of him needing to escape it like he was in a lions den. He's explaining it in a way that with all of the loneliness he was able to get his mind back on track and secure again.

I really hope it help

If you feel you can go in and add or take away. also don't worry about crediting it :)

The first thing you need is to understand what a metaphor is and how to find it in a text. A metaphor is a literary technique in which a writer uses words or sentences that initially do not seem connected to the rest of the text, but that in truth underline a concept of message through symbolism. This symbolism created by the words used often allows the reader to connect an idea or a concept being expressed by the author and that is best explained, or conveyed, through those symbols.

In the case of this text, we have several of those metaphors, or symbolic words and sentences that underline what Frederick Douglass wants to convey through his text. "..I felt as one may imagine the unarmed mariner to feel when he is rescued by a friendly-man-of-war from the pursuit of a pirate", "I said I felt like one who had escaped a den of hungry lions.", "There I was in the midst of thousands, and yet a perfect stranger...", "Children of a common Father", "Money-loving kidnappers whose business it was to lie in wait for the panting fugitive", "As the ferocious bests of the forest lie in wait for their pray."

Douglass uses a lot of metaphorical sentences simply to increase the sensation of readers that this man was really facing a very difficult time, that his struggles to manage to make people understand the importance of slavery abolition had been extreme, so extreme that they made him feel as "an unarmed mariner". These metaphors press on the reader the urgency, and also the desperation felt by Douglass, the terrible hardships he had to face even though he was no longer a slave himself. It also presses forward the concept of people´s insensibility towards the needs and sufferings of others: "There I was in the midst of thousands, and yet a perfect stranger; without home and without friends, in the midst of thousands of my own brethren..."
