Select the correct excerpt(s).
In "The Masque of the Red Death," Edgar Allan Poe personifles the Red Death. Which two excerpts from the story reflect this fact?
Excerpt 1
The "Red Death" had long devastated the country. No pestllence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was Its Avatar and Its seal-the
redness and the horror of blood.:
Excerpt 2
The figure was tall and gaunt, and shrouded from head to foot in the habillments of the grave. The mask which concealed the
visage was made
so nearly to resemble the countenance of a stiffened corpse
that the closest scrutiny must have had difficulty in detecting the cheat.
Excerpt 3
His vesture was dabbled in blood-and his broad brow, with
all the features of the face, was besprinkled with the scarlet horror. And now was
acknowledged the presence of
the Red Death. He had come like a thief in the night.
Excerpt 4
But in the western or black chamber the effect of the fire-light that
streamed upon the dark hangings through the blood-tinted panes,
was
ghastly in the extreme, and produced so wild a look upon the countenances of those who entered, that there were few of the company bold
enough to set foot within Its precincts at all.
