The pedestrian
Simile:
".... he would stride off, sending patterns of frosty air before him like the smoke of a cigar."
"..... where a window in a tomb-like building was still open."
Metaphor:
"And on his way he would see the cottages and homes with their dark windows, and it was not unequal to walking through a graveyard where only the faintest glimmers of firefly light appeared in flickers behind the windows."
