The person above me is correct - the theme of the whole story The Tell Tale Heart, written by American Romanticist Edgar Allan Poe is definitely how a human being cannot possibly bear to hide such a terrible secret and live with so much guilt.
The narrator of the story killed a man and buried him under the floor, but he constantly kept hearing the dead man's heartbeats, which is, of course, impossible, but given that he was feeling so guilty for having murdered a person, his mind brought him to insanity.
I believe the answer is a noun.

Answer:
"Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him."
Explanation:
The use of the words "astonished" and "wide-eyed" that are used to describe the non-human presence of the moon creates a feeling of wonder. It depicts a scene in which the moon is large (wide-eyed) and beautiful (astonished). This and the description of the fires and their shadows creates an almost magical scenario to help the reader envision what the narrator is seeing. The personification aids in this, allowing us to understand how the narrator <em>feels</em> as well (wonder).
The words "casting upon" can also be considered personification, but it is not relevant in this case.
