Question

soldier beard like the pard name and explain the figure of speech​

Answer 1

Answer: It's a metaphor and more particularly, an extended metaphor. ... The soldier, “bearded like” a leopard, seeks a “bubble” of notoriety, a gloomy metaphor for fame. And on it goes, with hyperbole and understatement, as each 'age', through 28 lines, is meant to describe roughly ten years of life.
