"Rnd remember also that in fighting against Man, we must not come to resemble him." - This part of the animal revolution is shown in the way the pigs adapt to the ways of man, especially when they abuse the other animals.

"All the habits of Man are evil." - At the end of the story, the pigs sleep in beds, drink alcohol, trade with the outside world, and begin to look like men when the animals look through the window at the end of the story.

Old Major uses convincing rhetoric in his speech that foreshadows what is to come. He uses the word "freedom" often invoking a coming rebellion. The song "Beasts of England" also foreshadows a greater unity of beasts and revolution against humans.

in animal farm chapter 1 napoleon says comrads i will not be with you much longer, and he say he can die any day and after telling the animals about the rebellion he teaches them the song beast of england he had died. that is an example of foreshawding

All of these examples are shown...

This foreshadows how later in the book, the pigs start to resemble humans. For example, the pigs start to drink alchohol, sleep in beds and wear clothes.
