What does the horse represent in Bierce's
definition?
✓
ROMANCE, n. Fiction that owes no
allegiance to the God of Things as They Are.
In the novel the writer's thought is tethered to
probability, as a domestic horse to the
hitching-post, but in romance it ranges at will
over the entire region of the imagination free,
lawless, immune to bit and rein.

The Horse in the Bierce refers to the potential of the enemy soldiers that fall asleep in the name of the country. The horse signifies the strength and the power of the soldiers in fighting the opponents of the country. The last man and the horse both leap off the ledge.

The correct option is the plot.

Option Plot is correct because the horse has been signified as the God of things and so has been plotted in such manner that the domestic horse ranges at the free imagination and also with strength and the power.

Option morals, novels, and sentences are wrong options because they do not provide the appropriate or accurate answer to the Devil's dictionary.
