Read this excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game" and answer the question.

Excerpt: His eyes made out the shadowy outlines of a palatial chateau; it was set on a high bluff, and on three sides of it cliffs dived down to where the sea licked greedy lips in the shadows.

In about 100 words, explain the figurative language in the italicized section of the passage above. What type of figurative language is it? In what ways does it function?
