What metaphors are used in Saint Emmanuel the Good, Martyr by Miguel de Unamuno?

The author makes extensive use of recurring metaphors through references to the story's setting in a village that is nestled "like a brooch between the lake and the mountain reflected in it." The narrator, Angela, utilizes metaphors that compare Don Emmanuel and the village to the lake and the mountain. Don Emmanuel is frequently described with reference to this setting, as a man who "carried himself the way our Buitre Peak carries its crest, and his eyes had all the blue depth of our lake." The voices of the villagers reciting from the Bible in unison are described as "a kind of mountain whose peak . . . was Don Emmanuel." Yet Don Emmanuel's voice is sometimes "drowned in the voice of the populace as in a lake." Through this use of metaphor, the mountain and the lake become symbols the community's spiritual life, with Don Emmanuel as its spiritual leader.
