Then,
his chores being all dispatched, he caught
another brace of men to make his breakfast,
and whisked away his great door slab
to let his sheep go through—but he, behind,
reset the stone as one would cap a quiver.
What two things are being compared in this epic simile?
the door slab to the Cyclops’ sheep
the stone to a quiver
a brace of men to breakfast
the Cyclops’ chores to the men
The two things being compared in this epic simile ("... he, behind, reset the stone as one would cap a quiver") are the stone and a quiver.
