Most famously,"She doth lie upon the cheek of night like a rich jewel in an ethiop's ear" (that's a simile) and "What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." (that's a metaphor).

To what does Romeo compare Juliet's beauty?

When he first sees her he compares her to burning torches, a jewel and a dove as in the extract: O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear; Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear! So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows. Later, when hiding in her garden, he compares her to the sun as in: But soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!-

Who speaks but soft what light yonder window breaks?

Romeo does not say this line to Juliet. He is hiding behind a bush in her backyard, hoping to get a glimpse of her. He knows that if he is found in her backyard he is dead meat. Suddenly, the curtains of one of the rooms part, and in the light from her room she steps out onto her balcony in her jammies. He is awestruck by her beauty, but he is not about to let on that he is there, in case she calls the security guards. To himself he says, "What light from yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." and he settles down to eavesdrop on her.


Where does romeo say yonder window?

He didn't call the window anything. He said, "But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? / It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." So he called the light that shone from the window "the east."
