N.B. One of the basic ways that sensory images are juxtaposed is through
SYNESTHESIA, which is the experience of two or modes of sensation when only
one sense is being stimulated; when one sense is described in terms of anoth-
er, as when color is attributed to sound, odor to colors, etc. (See especially
Rimbaud and Baudelaire.)

Webster's says of image:"something introduced to represent something else
that it strikingly resembles or suggests."

d'analogie).
