Therefore, the phrase is an hyperbole because it contrasts the idea of "a group of animals in a rush" to refer to "these rich Londoners" so as to cause a sense of exaggeration.
- "I'm a made man forever". The use of the word "forever" here is used to add emphasis to the fact that the character will be a made man as long as he lives: everyone knows nothing lasts forever.
