The house that surrounds me while I sleep is built on undermined ground; far beneath my bed, the floor, the house’s foundations,

the stopes and passages of gold mines have hollowed the rock, and when some face trembles, detaches, and falls, three thousand feet below, the whole house shifts slightly, bringing uneasy strain to the balance and counterbalance of brick, cement, wood, and glass that hold it as a structure around me.

Which is NOT a form of Irony? Sarcasm Dramatic Situational Coincidence
pentagon [3]
Coincidence is not a form of irony. Sarcasm obviously is, Dramatic is when the reader/viewer knows more than the character in the plot. Situational irony is when the opposite of what's expected happens, and Coincidence is not an irony.
