Read this excerpt from “the pit and the pendulum” by edgar allan poe. down—steadily down it crept. i took a frenzied pleasure in contrasting its downward with its lateral velocity. to the right—to the left—far and wide—with the shriek of a spirit; to my heart with the stealthy pace of the tiger! how does the pacing of this passage most affect the story? it conveys the narrator's worry and confusion, brought on by evil spirits working to disorient him. it conveys the narrator's understanding of his situation and compares it to that of a trapped tiger. it creates an agitated atmosphere that conveys the narrator's anxiety over the descending pendulum. it creates an uneasy atmosphere that conveys the narrator's uncertainty and the pendulum's unpredictable movement.(note that some of this isnt the correct term, i had to remove the curse word in it.)
