a) it indicates that farquhar is easily distracted and no longer concerned with his family.
b) it highlights farquhar’s confusion about whether or not he is alive and experiencing reality.
c) it emphasizes farquhar’s euphoric feelings about the rope breaking and his apparent survival.
d) it proves that farquhar is experiencing a dream before that fact is revealed to the reader.
