In Chapter 3 of "The Outsiders," an example of an allusion is when Ponyboy recites the poem "Nothing Gold Can Stay" by Robert Frost. This allusion serves to highlight the fleeting nature of innocence and beauty in the characters' lives. By referencing a well-known poem, the author, S.E. Hinton, adds depth and complexity to the themes of the novel, connecting the characters' struggles to broader literary and philosophical ideas.
