1. 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)

2. 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-dread was the last of distinct accentuation which reached my ears. (from "The Pot and the Pendulum " Edgar Allan Poe

3. 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 thoughts to venture abroad. You speculate on the luxury of wearing out 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
(from "The Haunted Minds" by Nathaniel Hawthorne)
