    Kevin sat nearest to the door of our small classroom. “Shh!” “Shh!” He said, “Here she comes!” “Hurry up everybody.” “Climb into your seats.” “I hear her pounding footsteps.” “She’s almost here!” In the late 1960s, my second-grade teacher, Ms. Dickerson, was needle thin, a conservative dresser, and strutted a tall stiff-looking hairdo. She also carried a no-nonsense steel rod in her personality, and if all her 25 students were not quiet, knees forward and sitting-up straight, when she

    “Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!” The school bell rings. Peter and I were playing football at recess when we heard the bell. We quickly rushed up the stairs to get to class.

    happiness is played out through the analogy of Omelas and the abandoned child. In this story, we are drawn into Le Guin’s world by use of her vivid descriptions. Le Guin pulls us into Omelas with her first phrase “with a clamor of bells that set the swallows soaring.'; From here she intricately weaves a pattern of plot and theme which she draws upon throughout the entire story. We are initially given to a blissful, almost jubilant, Omelas. We picture the “houses with red

    Regret The bells chimed and the sound faded into a soft echo. Birds were chirping: singing the songs of nature as their wings cut through the sunlight. The thick, crisp greenery shadowed and protected life from the rays of the sun. The tall bark stood strong and would be used as support from the sorrows of death. The bells chimed again. Inside were the faces of grief and mourning. Flowers surrounded the dark place to bring a shard of hope and brightness. The girl was sleeping there peacefully as

    “who so well knew the nature of my soul.” The language is ripe with religious overtones. The action implies a death march, a procession to death designed to avenge insults suffered by Montresor and his ancestors. The drinking of wine, the ringing of bells, and the lighting of candles are all part of Montresor’s “black mass”. Fortunado, the unwittingly victim, becomes the sacrifice in a wholly un-Christian ceremony. Poe carefully selects language that resounds of sacramental rites. Montresor admits that
