you didnt even say the answer..

Answer 2

In the context of Soapy referring to the jail as "the Island," this is an example of **metaphor**. A metaphor makes a comparison between two things without using "like" or "as," suggesting that one thing is another to highlight a particular quality or characteristic. In this case, the jail is being compared to an island, possibly implying isolation.

Answer 3

I apologize for not clearly stating the answer. The correct response is **Metaphor**. Thank you for your patience!
