Thy youth's proud livery, so gazed on now, / will be a tatter'd weed, of small worth held: what technique is being used? question 1 options: simile hyperbole personification metaphor

Metaphor

A metaphor is a comparison between two unlike things without using like or as. In the lines, "livery" is being compared to a "weed". In these lines the speaker is showing how youth or being young is bright, beautiful and new. On the other hand, old age is worn out and not valued.

A simile is a comparison between two unlike things using like or as. Personification is giving nonhuman things human-like traits. Hyperbole is an over exaggeration.

ich statement best shows a problem in travels with charley?

with all this in mind i wrote to the head office of a great corporation which manufactures trucks.
