Which words or phrases in this excerpt from Elizabeth Bishop's "The Fish" compare the fish to an old, experienced soldier? A green line, frayed at the endwhere he broke it, two heavier lines,
and a fine black thread
still crimped from the strain and snap
when it broke and he got away.
Like medals with their ribbons
frayed and wavering,
a five-haired beard of wisdom
trailing from his aching jaw.
I stared and stared
and victory filled up
the little rented boat,
from the pool of bilge
where oil had spread a rainbow

Answers

  • The speaker associates the fish with someone who has survived many battles.

Hi there!

The phrase you are looking for is: Like medals with their ribbons frayed and wavering, a five-haired beard of wisdom trailing from his aching jaw.
