List at least 2 metaphors and similes used :

since i have set my lips to your full cup, my sweet,
since i my pallid face between your hands have laid,
since i have known your soul, and all the bloom of it,
and all the perfume rare, now buried in the shade;

since it was given to me to hear on happy while,
the words wherein your heart spoke all its mysteries,
since i have seen you weep, and since i have seen you smile,
your lips upon my lips, and your eyes upon my eyes;

since i have known above my forehead glance and gleam,
a ray, a single ray, of your star, veiled always,
since i have felt the fall, upon my lifetime's stream,
of one rose petal plucked from the roses of your days;

i now am bold to say to the swift changing hours,
pass, pass upon your way, for i grow never old,
fleet to the dark abysm with all your fading flowers,
one rose that none may pluck, within my heart i hold.

your flying wings may smite, but they can never spill
the cup fulfilled of love, from which my lips are wet;
my heart has far more fire than you can frost to chill,
my soul more love than you can make my soul forget.

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.
