One that comes to mind immediately is Romeo's line, "But soft--what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!'

Romeo described Juliet as being "the sun," so that is one simile; the other simile is that Juliet is "light."

Similes are easy to pick out. They compare two unlike things using like or as.

Examples (not from the play):
The baby's skin was as soft as a rose petal.
The deer ran like the wind.

Go back through the scene. Shakespeare was good at using similes, so you should be able to find them fairly easily.

Why don't you read the book and find them yourself?
