Question

The sudden movement of a snake is compared to what? (Narrow Fellow in the ground)​

Answer 1

Metaphor: The poet compares the motion of a snake to a rider. She compares the quick movement of the snake's tail to a 'whip lash'. Animals are compared to 'Nature's people'. Simile: Dickinson directly compares the body of the snake to a comb, splitting the meadow.
