Read the following prompt and type your response in the space provided. Read the passage describing the Greek and Trojan armies:

"Sudden as hungry wolves the kids purloin
Or lambs, which haply some unheeding swain
Hath left to roam at large the mountains wild;
They, seeing, snatch them from beside the dams,
And rend incontinent the feeble prey,
So swift the Danaï the host assail'd
Of Ilium; they, into tumultuous flight
Together driven, all hope, all courage lost."

Identify the extended simile in this passage. How does it add meaning to the text? Support your response using evidence from the text.

I believe that  the answer to this question is:
Sudden as hungry wolves the kids purloinOr lambs, which haply some unheeding swainHath left to roam at large the mountains wild 
This is because a simile uses the words like or as.
I hope that this helps if you have any other questions feel free to message me!

"Sudden as hungry wolves the kids purloin

Or lambs, which haply some unheeding swain

Hath left to roam at large the mountains wild;

They, seeing, snatch them from beside the dams,

And rend incontinent the feeble prey"

It actually does include the last two lines because those two definitely do not relate to armies (soldiers are not snatched from dams). The author is comparing the wolves and lambs to the armies.
