One late night, I rode horseback to the house of Usher. This is where I met a boyhood friend of mine, Roderick, and his twin sister Madeline.

I was greeted by a servant, who took me into a large room. I finally met Roderick again after years, and I could tell by his face he was truly sick like he wrote in the letters.
Пързалка: 3
He began to tell me of his troubles. I got one look at his sister when she came in and thought it would be my last time seeing her because she looked deathly. We went over a plan to bury her once she passed.
Пързалка: 4
We sealed her in the casket but left her sitting for a few days because Roderick believed she was not truly dead. For the next couple of days, he could not sleep while he was mourning her.
Пързалка: 5
I watched as she fell into Roderick's arms and died. He then died moments later/ I heard the house begin to rumble so I ran out as quickly as I could and watched at the House of Usher fell to the ground.

After a few nights I felt as if I had caught Roderick's illness. I tried to brush this off until I heard a thud and Roderick cried out that his sister was back. I did not believe this until the door opened, and there she stood.
