Oh, dude, figures of speech in "The Walrus and the Carpenter"? Like, we've got similes, metaphors, personification, all that jazz. The Walrus saying, "The time has come," is like when your friend finally decides to leave the party. The Carpenter's "It seems a shame" is a metaphor for when you realize you've run out of snacks. So, yeah, those are some of the figures of speech in that wacky poem.

The Walrus was the Carpenter's friend.The Walrus and the CarpenterWere walking close at hand;They wept like anything to seeSuch quantities of sand:"If this were only cleared away,"They said, "it would be grand!"-Excerpt from:The Walrus and The CarpenterLewis Carroll(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

The poem "The Walrus and the Carpenter" appears in Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There." It describes a walrus and a carpenter who lure young oysters to their dinner with promises of a pleasant walk.
The Carpenter
In the original poem the Walrus and the Carpenter trick and eat a lot of hapless oysters. In Disney's 1951 animation the Walrus eats ALL of them while the Carpenter isn't looking. However, while his actions are morally questionable, there is no suggestion that the Walrus has actually committed a crime.
