How was this vile nervous fit, for such I now persuaded myself it was, to be conquered? I determined to force myself not to look

at the painting but to undress quickly and get into bed. I began to undress, but in spite of every effort I could not keep myself from stealing a glance every now and then at the picture; and a glance was now sufficient to distress me. Even when my back was turned to it, the idea of this strange face behind me, peering over my shoulder, was insufferable. . . . I had grown nervous to a dismal degree.
–“The Adventure of the Mysterious Picture,”
Washington Irving

Answer:

The answer is indeed:

undressing uncomfortably

being unable to take his eyes away

being nervous

Explanation:

The suspenseful tone of this passage relies on the uneasy mood created by the author. The mood provokes an emotional response in readers and, in this case, it is set by the actions described. Even though the speaker wishes to not look at the picture, he is unable to do so. Readers can imagine him glancing at it as we glance at something we are afraid of; undressing uncomfortably as we do when we feel that someone is watching us; being nervous as if something is about to happen. All those actions contribute to a sense of suspense and uneasiness.

From what you have read and previewed, which statements are true of both "Pyramus and Thisbe” and The Tragedy of Romeo and Julie
Nataly [62]

The children must hide their love from their families. In the end, the children die as a result of their love. The love between the children is forbidden.

In "Pyramus and Thisbe" the parents simply do not want their children falling in love with each other. We do not know the reason for this and are not told of any feud or conflict. This means that any option that has to do with a conflict between the families should not be chose. Since the children have to hide their love from the families in both pieces of literature, it is safe to say that love between them is forbidden. In the end, Pyramus and Thisbe, Romeo and Juliet die because of their love for each other.
