How is a sense of awe portrayed?
“His mind staggered by its vastness”
How is the room hyperbolically described?
“It’s walls huge cliffs that soared upwards”
“All day long, and often into the early hours
of the mooring, the tramp of feet sounded up and down the stairs”
“When he set off for the library
the pedestrian traffic was moving him towards the down-town offices”
“Pieces of the wardrobe lay
on his bed and across the floor”
