Read the excerpt from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.

We were all now tied; and just as we were to leave for Easton jail, Betsy Freeland, mother of William Freeland, came to the door with her hands full of biscuits, and divided them between Henry and John. She then delivered herself of a speech, to the following effect:—addressing herself to me, she said, "You devil! You yellow devil! it was you that put it into the heads of Henry and John to run away. But for you, you long-legged mulatto devil! Henry nor John would never have thought of such a thing." I made no reply, and was immediately hurried off towards St. Michael's.

i don’t understand the question but I’ll answer it as much as I know from the story.

The narrator wants to kill his old man because of his eye. He thinks his eye is a vulture and hates it. He try’s to convince the readers that he is not crazy and it perfectly sane. When he decides he wants to kill him because of it he goes into his room for 7 days a night and watches him sleep. He can’t kill him when the old man is asleep because his eyes will be closed. On the eighth night the old man hears something and him and the narrator stay still for an hour. The narrator knew that the old man was terrified and could feel it. The narrator then made his lantern a little crevice dim ray and saw the old man’s eye and then heard a heartbeat. He held the day upon the eye and then waited. After waiting he threw open the lantern and leaped into the room, dragged the old man on the floor and pulled his heavy bed over him(which basically means he killed him). The last thing he hears from the old man are the heartbeats. The narrator then dismembered his corpse(cut off head, arms, and legs) took 3 planks of wood flooring, and put his body under there. He put back the 3 planks of wood. As the bell sounded the hour, 3 police officers came to the narrator’s house. They got word from a neighbor who said they heard a shriek in the middle of the night. The narrator then lets them in, examines his house, and they also questions . The narrator said he was “absent in the country”. He thought to himself that his manner and how nicely he was satisfied the police and he was going to get away with murder. He then starts hearing a heartbeat. As it keeps going, it gets louder and louder. The narrator at a point couldn’t take it anymore then admitted his crime of killing his old man.

So technically we see that the narrator is well, crazy and mentally ill. He couldn’t take how loud the heartbeats were.
If i didn’t answer your question(bc i don’t really get what the question is asking) please let me know! Thank you!

Please give me an ACTUAL answer :)


Think of a short story that you’ve read that has meant something to you. It can be one of the short stories from this unit or one that you’ve read on your own. Think about why you like the story you have chosen. Then, compare and contrast the short story to other stories you’ve read. Explain what makes the story you chose to stand out more than other stories. Did the point of view make the story particularly appealing to you? Did the characters or the setting draw you in? Was the writing style inviting and approachable? What was it about the story’s message and ideas that interested you?

Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.

She was rambling on in this way when she reached the wood: it looked very cool and shady. “Well, at any rate it's a great comfort,” she said as she stepped under the trees, “after being so hot, to get into the—into WHAT?” she went on, rather surprised at not being able to think of the word. “I mean to get under the—under the—under THIS, you know!” putting her hand on the trunk of the tree. “What DOES it call itself, I wonder? I do believe it's got no name—why, to be sure it hasn't!”

She stood silent for a minute, thinking: then she suddenly began again. “Then it really HAS happened, after all! And now, who am I? I WILL remember, if I can! I'm determined to do it!” But being determined didn't help much, and all she could say, after a great deal of puzzling, was, “L, I KNOW it begins with L!”
