Example of Metaphor:
“And so back to London in the evening….the good-nights and see you tomorrows of friends parting at wayside stations, and then the lights of London — not the flaring ecstasy of youth, not that tattered violet banner, but still the lights of London all the same; hard, electric lights, high up in offices; street lamps laced along dry pavements; flares roaring above street markets.”
