In this excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe's, "The Fall of the House of Usher", the statement mirrors what happens in the rest of the story because at first as he watches the house he feels an utter depression of soul, there is something in the house that makes him feel this wat. He forces himself to view this as not real. But, both the house and the occupants are equally ill. Roderick, himself says the house is unhealthy. Both Usher twins lay dead in the house. From the outside, the narrator sees how the house crumbles to the ground.
