Explanation:

In the story "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe, the narrator tells that he has killed an old man because he could not bear to see his horrible eye. He suffocated him with his own bed and when he felt the old man'd heart stop, cut him into peaces and hid him under the floor. A neighbour heart the man scream and called the police. When they arrived, the narrator explained that he had screamed in his sleep and that the old man was out of town. But, while talking to them, the narrator starts hearing a sound, like a ticking clock or a beating heart, and, no matter what he did, this noise continued to increase. This shows the narrator's paranoia of being discovered by the police, since the last thing he heart was the old man's heart as it stopped beating.

awnser: the oxford dictionary of quotations (oup 1970) has 66 pages of quotations

attributed to the writings of william shakespeare in which there are 2369 quotations,

which may reflect well over 5000 speeches, discussions, observations and comments

that are present in shakespeare’s work. it is largely from those speeches and discussions

on shakespeare’s 37 plays, as well as his, and others’ poems, that examples have been

taken here.

in this book all quotations from his poems and plays have been taken from various

editions of the arden shakespeare.

the writer is very much indebted to the rapid response provided by his son, henry

audley-charles , for cries of , guidance, advice and repairs to his ageing pc, that

henry provided at all hours. without this assistance over the last 3 years this book

could not have been written.

in addition, the writer is much for the kind by discussion and proof readings from

elizabeth macbeth and janet hulse; and for his knowledge of shakespeare’s plays and

poems in discussions with monsieur francis saillart; and especially for years of proof

reading, support and with this book from my wife brenda amy cordeiro. above

all, the debt i owe is to professor david price, vice provost research. he has acted as

the editor and the guide for the whole project. this has been far from easy with

changes repeatedly being made by the author and which continued after professor price

had provided all the editorial structure for this project.
