Revealing that when Alan uses the potion, the old man knows that he will be back just like his other customers. Imagery is also shown in the story "The Chaser". This quote in the short story represents the imagery shown.
Explanation:
At the beginning of the novel Animal Farm, the animals wanted freedom. They no longer wanted to be slaves to mankind.
By the end of the novel, the animals are no longer slaves to mankind -- now, they are slaves to the pigs. The animals have substituted one master for another and will not get the freedom they once desired.

In this way, they have gone against the ideals they professed to hold at the beginning of the novel.
