Answer: Oxymoron: His honour rooted in dishonour stood, and faith unfaithful kept him falsely true. Metaphor: He was a gay dog, who didn't care what he spent. Onomatopoeia: Well, after a long time I heard the clock away off in the town go boom- boom- boom-twelve licks; and all still again-stiller than ever. Hyperbole: she was a curious woman, whose eresses always looked as if they had been designed in a rage and put on in a tempest.

Explanation: oxymoron is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction (faith unfaithful, falsely true). A metaphor is a figure of speech that consists in making a direct comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, in order to create an image in the reader's mind (comparing a man to a dog). Onomatopoeia is the act of creating or using words that include sounds that are similar to the noises the words refer to (boom boom boom). A hyperbole is a type of figurative language that consists in exaggerating an event or a statement (always looked as if they had been designed in a rage and put on in a tempest).
