Metaphors are comparisons. So, in Sleepy Hollow, when it says "it was but a blast sweeping sharply through the branches", this is a metaphor for a broom.

In "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," the headless horseman can be seen as a metaphor for fear of the unknown or fear of the supernatural. It represents the mysterious and unsettling aspects of the world that cannot be easily explained or understood by rational thought. The headless horseman embodies the haunting and terrifying elements of the human psyche that lurk in the shadows of one's consciousness.
