The description of the pendulum which is described as an instrument of death gives a Gothic experience to the readers. The story begins with the letter “I” which marks the narration of the story being told through the first-person point of view.

schepotkina [342]

Internal summary verbal connection follows a main point and serves to remind the audience of what the speaker has expressed.

Internal summaries are the flip side of internal views. Rather than indicating what sub-points to follow in the speech, internal summaries remind listeners of which sub-points were discussed. Internal summaries are excellent ways to reinforce and clarify ideas that are essential for listeners to remember.
