"[...] his spears thirsting for the kill [...]" (65; 134).
-This section gives an image of a character desperate to kill someone, its as if he must kill someone or else he cannot live. Pretty much portrays and image of a murderer, thirsting to kill.
Simile
"And he had driven against our borders, launched by the warring claims of Polynices- like an eagle screaming, winging havoc over the land" (65; 125-128)
-It shows the intensity how the enemy were charging their borders with great force and power, just like how an eagle is seen as a symbol of keenness, strength, and bravery.
Metaphor
"of his furry hurling against our heads!" (66; 151)
- This portrays the image of his anger showing, and how it could be seen by others.
