PREVIEW
Identify the simile in the poem and
explain the effect of this simile.

The simile in the poem is: "The moon
has a face like the clock in the hall;"

This simile compares the face of the
moon to a clock, suggesting that the
moon is ever-present and watches over
the world like a clock watches over a
room. This gives the moon a
personified quality, making it seem
familiar and constant, which might be
comforting to children.

, Question 1

Read the following short poem and answer the questions that follow.



THE MOON

By Robert Louis Stevenson

The moon has a face like the clock in the hall;

She shines on thieves on the garden wall,

On streets and field and harbour quays*,

And birdies asleep in the forks of the trees.



The squalling cat and the squeaking mouse,

The howling dog by the door of the house,

The bat that lies in bed at noon,

All love to be out by the light of the moon.



But all of the things that belong to the day

Cuddle to sleep to be out of her way; And

flowers and children close their eyes

Till up in the morning the sun shall arise.


(Stevenson, R.L. 2008. ‘The Moon’, in A Child’s Garden of Verses. Project Gutenberg
