The Fall of the House of Usher is a short Gothic story written by Edgar Allan Poe.
The story is about the narrator's visit to his friend, Roderick Usher's house. The narrator arrives at his friend's house and describes the structure of the house.
<u>In the given excerpt, the narrator is describing the Usher's ancient house which is unearthly. The narrator observes the antiquity of the Usher's age-old mansion. The mansion is 'discolored' and 'fungi' is spread over the mansion. The narrator tells that even though the mansion is old none of its portion is fallen or broken. </u>
