         <description><![CDATA[<div>"Here again I paused abruptly, and now with a feeling of wild amazement—for there could be no doubt whatever that, in this instance, I did actually hear a low and apparently distant, but harsh, protracted, and most unusual screaming or grating sound—the exact counterpart of what my fancy had already conjured up for the dragon’s unnatural shriek as described by the romancer." pg 332<br><br>This quote connects to <strong>Bizzare Events in the Plot</strong>. The quote describes a bizarre event that happened by "coincident," in which while the narrator reads out a story. In the story, the wall of a wooden gate is being broken, when suddenly a sound off in the distance  replicates the sound of a door being broken down.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This section starts off with Usher entering the chamber where the Narrator is residing in the mansion. There is a sense of hilarity in Usher's eyes and hysteria emanating from him. Usher begs the Narrator to stay with him in the mansion. Usher suddenly opens a <strong>casement</strong>, then throws out the lamp he walked in with. Wild gusts from the storm outside enters the room, and a whirlwind has formed within the mansion's vicinity. The Narrator calms Usher down, closes the casement, and tells Usher that the images he is seeing is only his imagination, a result of his mental sickness. The Narrator suggests that he read a story to Usher: the <em>Mad Trust </em>of Sir Launcelot Canning. The Narrator describes the book as unimaginative <strong>prolixity</strong>.<br>The story has three main events: Canning (the hero) breaks down a wooden door, Canning strikes a dragon and it shrieks, and a metal shield falls from a wall onto the silver floor. At the exact moment that the Narrator read these events, he hears similar sounds several floors below. He hears wood breaking (probably the coffin), a loud shriek (Madeline), and a ringing of metal. Usher also hears this and realizes that they have buried Madeline alive. Madeline suddenly appears in front of Usher as he approaches the chamber door, and Madeline lunges at Usher. Usher collapses through the floor, and the mansion breaks down more. The Narrator makes a run out of the mansion, and flees. The mansion crumbles behind him and the two inhabitants of the house dies.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>"cracking and<br>ripping sound which Sir Lancelot had so particularly<br>described" (pg 332)<br>This quote connects to Bizarre Events in the Plot because the Narrator heard coffin opens and he is describing the sound.<br>"And now, the champion, having escaped from the<br>terrible fury of the dragon, bethinking himself of the brazen<br>shield, and of the breaking up of the enchantment which was<br>upon it, removed the carcass from out of the way before him,<br>and approached valorously over the silver pavement of the<br>castle to where the shield was upon the wall" (Pg. 333)<br>This quote connects to mysterious.
