Answer:

The "moans" of the sea dog represent the sounds made by the waves, which at night become "howls and hollos." Each behavior of the sea is translatedinto a corresponding behavior in a dog, such as the way the spray of the stormy sea becomes a dog "shaking his wet sides over the cliffs."

Answer:

D. James Reeves's poem "The Sea" uses an extended metaphor to describe the sea as a dog. ... The onomatopoeic moans mimic the sound of the sea, and the spray resembles the tongue of a dog "Licking his greasy paws." The image of the greasy paws evokes the way the light makes a film over the gray sea.
