Which lines by emily dickinson are an example of metaphor? we outgrow love like other things and put it in the drawer, till it an antique fashion shows like costumes grandsires wore. hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul, i've heard it in the chillest land, and on the strangest sea;

The lines are indeed " Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul"

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two different things in order to attribute a quality of one of them to the other. To make such comparison, the metaphor states that "thing A is thing B". Dickinson uses this figure of speech to compare hope to a bird, a feeling to an animal. The literal meaning would make no sense, but we can grasp that she is trying to attribute some quality belonging to a bird to the feeling of hope - maybe its lightness.

Note: A simile is a figure of speech similar to a metaphor in the sense that it also makes a comparison. It needs support words that the metaphor doesn't use - "as" or "like". Let's make it clear that a metaphor does not use the words "like" or "as".
