The reason, to me, that he sighs "like furnace" is because he is so overcome with passion. ... Shakespeare is using the furnace not just for the sighing sound that it makes, but to infer that the lover is "hot" with love for his mistress. It's a great simile that is ahead of its time from a literary standpoint.
