The purpose of setting a deadline for a goal is to establish accountability. For a personal goal, that accountability is a measure of success or failure in attaining that goal. For instance, if your goal is to obtain a bachelor's degree, a measure of accountability would be the deadline of achieving that in four years. Thus, achieving that degree in fifteen years could be seen as a failure. In a professional atmosphere, every goal and every project should have a deadline for completion to establish accountability and as a measure of efficiency and competency as well.

Tetrameter means that there are 8 syllables. One meter = two syllables. And tetra, meaning four, must have 8 syllables.

The fact that he was sure of the malign significance of the strange constellations and the voices he hears, suggests that Farquhar thinks an evil force has interfered in his life to have him killed.
Later in the story, however, we learn that the third part of the story was actually a<em> hallucination</em> that came to him between being thrown from the bridge and the rope breaking his neck, and that Farquhar has indeed died.
