    What the simile adds to this passage is:

    * a comparison between the sea and a cauldron

    * a visual representation of the sea's anger

    Explanation:

    The question is not complete since it does not provide the passage, here is the passage:

    In travail, sobbing, gaining on the current,

    we rowed into the strait - Scylla to port

    and on our starboard beam Charybdis, dire

    gorge of the salt sea tide. By heaven! when she

    vomited, all the sea was like a cauldron

    seething over intense fire, when the mixture

    suddenly heaves and rises.

    This passage from the Odyssey gives a very extensive and complete description of the elements that are part of the simile, by making the comparison of elements it also provides a very visual and clear representation of the sea, one of the key parts is the use of the line "all the sea was like a cauldron"
