[Northkeep] question of distinction

[LRA]

An analogy is when one thing is compared to another showing something
similar, for example: a computer is like a brain.

An allegory is a story, play, poem, picture or similar type "telling of a
tale" in which characters or events represent particular ideas or qualities
that are related to some moral, religious or political meaning.
