Which phrase from the poem "Monet’s ‘Waterlilies’” by Robert Hayden is an example of a simile?

A simile compares two things using words such as “like” or “as.” In “the eye like the eye of faith believes,” the speaker compares the eye to the eye of faith using “like,” so this phrase is a simile. The other phrases use descriptive or metaphorical language but do not make this direct comparison.
