Mr. Utterson had been some minutes at his post, when he was aware of an odd light footstep drawing near. In the course of his ni

ghtly patrols, he had long grown accustomed to the quaint effect with which the footfalls of a single person, while he is still a great way off, suddenly spring out distinct from the vast hum and clatter of the city. Yet his attention had never before been so sharply and decisively arrested; and it was with a strong, superstitious prevision of success that he withdrew into the entry of the court. What is the mood of the excerpt?

Hello!

I'd say that the mood of this excerpt is suspenseful. 

First of all, the setting is during the night, and this centers around a man by himself on patrol and hearing footsteps drawing near. Passages like this would usually create a feeling of anticipation for what's going to happen next.

Hope I helped! :3

Write a paragraph that evaluates Odysseus’s qualifications as an epic hero.
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The hero of legend Odysseus is an epic hero because he embodies many of the traits of an epic hero, such as being a fearless commander. "Yet she urged that I alone should listen to their song. Therefore, you are to tie me up, tight as a splint, /erect along the mast, lashed to the mast, /and if I shout and beg to be untied, /take more turns of the rope to muffle me. /I would rather be dwelt on this part of the forecast, /while our good ship made time, bound outward down the wind for the strange island of Sirens "(Homer 23–31). Because he guides his men over treacherous seas, Odysseus might be considered heroic. He is never afraid to take on a challenge or accomplish a job.
