"The Monkey Paw" by W. W. Jacobs

Neither spoke, but lay silently listening to the ticking of the clock. A stair creaked, and a squeaky mouse scurried noisily through the wall. The darkness was oppressive, and after lying for some time gathering up courage, he took the box of matches, and striking one, went downstairs for a candle.

At the foot of the stairs the match went out, and he paused to strike another; and at the same moment a knock so quiet and stealthy as to be scarcely audible, sounded on the front door.

The matches fell from his hand. He stood motionless, his breath suspended.......

Choose the phrase from the passage that appeals to your sense of sight.

• "squeaky mouse scurried noisily"

• At the foot of the stairs, the match went out,"

• "clicking of the clock"

• "striking one"

"The Eagle" by Alfred Lord Tennyson

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;

Close to the sun in lonely lands

Ring'd with the azure world he stands

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;

He watches from his mountain walls,

And like a thunderbolt he falls.
