The hearth is desolate. the children, the unconscious children, who once sang and danced in her presence, are gone. she gropes her way, and the darkness of age, for a drink of water. instead of the voices of her children, she hears by day the moans of the dove, and by night the screams of the hideous owl. all is gloom. the grave is at the door. and now, when weighed down by the pains and aches of old age, when the head inclines to the feet, when the beginning and ending of human existence meet, and infancy and painful old age combine together Γ’β¬β at this time, this most needful time, the time for the exercise of that tenderness and affection which children only can exercise towards the decline parent Γ’β¬β my poor old grandmother, the devoted mother of 12 children, is left all alone, in yonder little hut, before a few dim embers. she stands Γ’β¬β she sits Γ’β¬β she staggers Γ’β¬β she falls Γ’β¬β she groans Γ’β¬β she dies Γ’β¬β and there are none of her children or grandchildren present to wipe from her wrinkled brow the cold sweat of death, or to place beneath the sod her fallen remains. will not a righteous god visit for these things?

What is the effect of the author's choice of the word loathsome rather than hateful in this sentence from the count of monte cristo? two soldiers were accordingly sent for, and the inspector descended a stairway, so foul, so humid, so dark, as to be loathsome to sight, smell, and respiration. it reveals that the unpleasant aspects of the stairway are manmade. it stresses the disgusting, offensive nature of the stairway. it suggests that the soldiers are used to the place and do not hate it. it implies that the effects of the stairway are felt only by the inspector.
