Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

like a lion eager for a victim, like a young lion crouching in hidden places

(Some words not found in UHB: likeness_of,they like,lion eager to,tear and,like,young_lion was_sitting in/on/at/with,ambush )

These two phrases express very similar ideas. The repetition adds intensity.
