Which line from this sonnet contains a metaphor? Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines Thou art more lovely and more temperate Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see



Answer :

"Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines" is the line that contains a metaphor, since the phrase "the eye of heaven shines" is meant to refer to the blazing Sun.

Answer:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines

Explanation:

A metaphor is a hidden comparison between two things. Unlike a simile, a metaphor does not use words like and as.

The first line compares the sun to the 'eye of heaven'. But it does not say 'the sun is like the eye of heaven'. It just uses this phrase instead of the word 'sun', making the comparison implied.
