Extended Metaphor

Definition: Some Lines in the Poem uses Metaphor.

Example: All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, mewling and puking in the nurse's arms..

Significance: Extended Metaphor makes the poem more interesting and also help the writer express more of what they are trying to say than metaphor.
