Irony- Dr. called to important case but child dying is important case The doctor lied about having something important to take care of when he really had nothing better to do while a child was dying.
Symbolism- Kino's hand healing symbolizes his luck changing The hand that Kino used to punch the gate is now healing because the pearl represents healing their problems.
Foreshadowing- ...kino is everyman's enemy now... This means that now that Kino has found the pearl everyone wants it and they are willing to kill him for it.
Metaphor- News seems to move faster than small boys can scramble and dart to tell it... This means that before you have a chance to tell anyone what happened they will already know because no one is able to keep secrets.
Personification- The houses belched people; the doorways spewed out children. This occured when Kino and Juana were going into town to sell the pearl. It means that people were running out of the houses by groups.
