The Cask of Amontillado
by Edgar Allan Poe (excerpt)
But to these words I hearkened in vain for a reply. I grew impatient. I called aloud -
"Fortunatol"
No answer. I called again -
"Fortunato!"
No answer still. I thrust a torch through the remaining aperture and let it fall within. There came forth in return only a jingling of the bells. My heart
grew sick, it was the dampness of the catacombs that made it so. I hastened to make an end of my labour. I forced the last stone into its position;
I plastered it up. Against the new masonry I re-erected the old rampart of bones. For the half of a century no mortal has disturbed them. In pace
requiescati
