1 .
A resemblance of relations ;
an agreement or likeness between things in some circumstances or effects ,

[
1913 Webster ]
Note :
Analogy is very commonly used to denote similarity or essential resemblance ;
but its specific meaning is a similarity of relations ,
and in this consists the difference between the argument from example and that from analogy .
In the former ,
we argue from the mere similarity of two things ;
in the latter ,
from the similarity of their relations . --

The similitude of relations which exist between things compared .
2 .
To reason analogically ,
is to draw conclusions based on this similitude of relations ,
on the resemblance ,
or the connexion which is perceived between the objects compared . "
It is this guide ,"
says Toollier ,
which leads the law lawgiver ,
like other men ,
without his observing it .
It is analogy which induces us ,
with reason ,
to suppose that ,
following the example of the Creator of the universe ,
the lawgiver has established general and uniform laws ,
which it is unnecessary to repeat in all analogous cases ."
