Answer:
The first excerpt is an octave and the second is a sestet.

An octave is composed of eight lines, and a sestet has six. Counting the lines, the poem "Nothing Gold Can Stay" by Robert Frost has eight, thus being an octave, and the excerpt from "Hero and Leander" by Christopher Marlowe has six lines, meaning that is a sestet.

Answer:
Fahrquhar's fantasy and imaginative narration implies that he may not be trusted as a reliable witness.
Explanation:
'An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge' is a short story written by Ambrose Bierce. The story is about a man named Peyton Fahrquhar, who is hanged in the story and also narrates the events that caused this hanging.
Peyton Fahrquhar is a middle-aged man of about thirty-five years of age. He desires to be a part of Confederate Army and support the cause of Southerners. In Part III, after Fahquhar was hanged, he fanstasize himself to be free from ropes on his hands and neck and marvelously escaped from Federal's hanging. By the difference between the Third-person narrator's description and Fahrquhar's witness of his escape dictates that Fahrquhar was fantasizing his escape but in reality he is dead.
<em>'Doubtless, despite his suffering, he had fallen asleep while walking, for now he sees another scene—</em><u><em>perhaps he has merely recovered from a delirium</em></u><em>. He stands at the gate of his own home. All is as he left it, and all bright and beautiful in the morning sunshine. He must have traveled the entire night.'</em>
The last statement of the story also verifies that Fahrquhar's witnessing is unreliable:
<em>'Peyton Fahrquhar was dead; his body, with a broken neck, swung gently from side to side beneath the timbers of the Owl Creek bridge.'</em>
When Fahrquhar was imagining his escape, he was hung on the Owl Creek Bridge.
