Read the following poem and answer the question that follows."I Like to See it Lap the Miles" by Emily DickinsonI like to see it lap the miles,And lick the valleys up.And stop to feed itself at tanks;And then, prodigious, stepAround a pile of mountains,And, supercilious, peerIn shanties by the sides of roads;And then a quarry pareTo fit its sides, and crawl between,Complaining all the whileIn horrid, hooting stanza;Then chase itself down hillAnd neigh like Boanerges;Then, punctual as a star,Stop-docile and omnipotent-At its own stable door.This poem describes a train as if it were a horse.
