- The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog. (Personification)
- A man’s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness (Hyperbole)
- He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. (Metaphor)
- He is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey to the heavens. (Simile)
