The allusion is a literary device that is employed in the following sentence from Herman Melville’s short story "Bartleby, the Scrivener".
The allusion is a figure of speech where an item or incident from a different context is subtly or indirectly referenced. The audience is expected to draw an obvious connection. It is typically referred to as a reference when the author makes the relationship clear and unambiguous.
Essentially, an allusion is a reference to another object. It occurs when a writer alludes to another piece of writing or alludes to a previous section of the current work. It's usually used to allude to cultural works in literature (e.g. by alluding to a Bible story or Greek myth).
You can spot allusions by carefully considering what a sentence or paragraph is alluding to by comparing it to an idea from a different passage.

I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.”
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”
