Which lines in this excerpt from phillis wheatley's poem "goliath of gath" contain examples of figurative language?

thick as the foliage of the waving wood;
between them an extensive valley lay,
o'er which the gleaming armour pour'd the day,

in the dire deeds of bleeding battle skill'd,

And his eyes have all the seeming of a demons that is dreaming which of these poetic devices is used here?
