Can you summarize lines 80-111 in the 'Masquerade of the Red Death' by Edgar Allan Poe?
Summary of Masque of the Red Death. "The relationship between the Red Death and time is a key to understanding the symbolic meaning of the story. The seven rooms are laid out from east to west, reminding us of the course of the sun which measures our earthly time. These rooms are lighted from without, and it is only in the seventh room where the color of the windows does not correspond with the color of the room, but instead is "a deep blood color" through which light illuminates the westernmost chamber of black, with an ebony clock on its western wall. Poe links the colors red and black with death and time." ChaCha!
