The poem "Like the Molave" by Rafael Zulueta da Costa contains several figures of speech.
Here are some examples:
Simile - a comparison using "like" or "as"
"Like the molave that resists / the fury of the monsoon, / so do thy sons resist / the constant onsets of tyranny."
Metaphor - a comparison without using "like" or "as"
"Thou art the molave / Stout in the forest hard to fell."
Personification - giving human qualities to non-human things
"To the native soil thy rootlets / are so attached, who say / that if they plant thee in foreign land / thou wilt live but wilt not grow."
Hyperbole - exaggeration for effect
"And to the rocks thy sons / Shall shout thy name, / Stronger than thunder, / More sublime than the eagle's scream."
Allusion - a reference to a well-known person, place, event, or literary work
"Like the molave, for which our heroes died, / You are the living spirit of a race / That eternally sings the praises / Of a mother's sacrifice."
These figures of speech add richness and depth to the poem, helping to convey its themes and ideas in a more vivid and memorable way.

Simile: The title of the poem itself uses simile to compare the Molave tree to a person or a national hero. Throughout the poem, the Molave is described as having qualities that are similar to those of a brave and resilient person.
Personification: The Molave is described as having a “heart of flame” and “unyielding spirit” which are human qualities attributed to a tree.
Metaphor: The lines “Like the molave, firm, resolute, immutable” use metaphor to compare the tree to a person who is unwavering and unchanging in their beliefs and principles.
Hyperbole: The phrase “Like the molave, I am towering and strong” is an example of hyperbole as it exaggerates the speaker’s strength and stature.
Alliteration: The line “Like the molave, broad and generous” uses alliteration to emphasize the tree’s generosity and wide-reaching branches.
Imagery: The poem uses vivid images to describe the Molave tree and its surroundings, such as the “deep ravines” and “wild torrent” that surround it.
