I heard many things in hell.". this sounds like something no normal person can " healthily" which again calls attention to the fact that maybe he isn't so mentally healthy.this is told from the first person point of view. Our narrator is going to kill an old man he "loves" because the man has cataracts and his eye look like vulture's eyes.our narrator is proving himself to be crazy.
