Question

Read the passage:

Sir Ralph the Rover sail'd away,--
He scour'd the seas for many a day;
And now grown rich with plunder'd store,
He steers his course for Scotland's shore.

So thick a haze o'erspreads the sky
They cannot see the sun on high;
The wind hath blown a gale all day;
At evening it hath died away.

Which is the best example of figurative language in the passage?
