This is actually based from <span>Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher”. And based on this excerpt, what the narrator is doing in this moment is that he is was reminiscing of what had happened in the past. Hope this answers your question. </span>
To me this quote means that all men lie about there promises. There deeds all are different.Just like there promises.Then when they have deeds theydont want to do them
Hope this helps
