Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. match the excerpt to the narrative technique it uses. first-person narration second-person narration third-person narration the "red death" had long devastated the country. no pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. blood was its avatar and its seal—the redness and the horror of blood. there were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. the scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow-men. and the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour. (from “the masque of red death” by edgar allan poe) arrowright i was sick—sick unto death with that long agony; and when they at length unbound me, and i was permitted to sit, i felt that my senses were leaving me. the sentence—the dread sentence of death—was the last of distinct accentuation which reached my ears. after that, the sound of the inquisitorial voices seemed merged in one dreamy indeterminate hum. it conveyed to my soul the idea of revolution—perhaps from its association in fancy with the burr of a mill wheel. (from “the pit and the pendulum” by edgar allan poe) arrowright you sink down and muffle your head in the clothes, shivering all the while, but less from bodily chill than the bare idea of a polar atmosphere. it is too cold even for the thoughts to venture abroad. you speculate on the luxury of wearing out a whole existence in bed like an oyster in its shell, content with the sluggish ecstasy of inaction, and drowsily conscious of nothing but delicious warmth such as you now feel again. (from “the haunted mind” by nathaniel hawthorne)
