From “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe
Shaking off from my spirit what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity [old age or looking like an antique]. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior . . . No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones.
Poe is using two types of organization in this passage: spatial and order of importance. Focusing on order of importance, which phrase represents the most significant detail in this description?
A. No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen
B. the crumbling condition of the individual stones
C. seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity
D. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior
