<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • The excerpt above is an example of Harte's use of <u>humor</u>.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Humor is an abstract apparatus that means to initiate beguilement or chuckling. Its motivation is to break the dreariness, weariness, and repetitiveness, and influence the gathering of people's nerves to unwind.

Harte utilizes comic scenes, discourse, and depictions to counterbalance the deplorability of the story and to shield it from transforming into acting. A great part of the diversion depends on metaphor. Once in a while this is turned around to modest representation of the truth, in which the words appear to be unreasonably immaterial for the event.

Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.I hope this helps!
