Read the excerpt from "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge." The sudden arrest of his motion, the abrasion of one of his hands on the gravel, restored him, and he wept with delight. He dug his fingers into the sand, threw it over himself in handfuls and audibly blessed it. It looked like diamonds, rubies, emeralds; he could think of nothing beautiful which it did not resemble. The trees upon the bank were giant garden plants; he noted a definite order in their arrangement, inhaled the fragrance of their blooms. Which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt?

Answer 2

The effect is that it emphasizes Farquhar’s euphoric feelings about the rope breaking and his apparent survival.

Effect of the narration.

From the text, it can be seen that Farquhar is extremely happy that he survived the hanging. His energy was restored and he wept for joy.

It should be noted that his actions then show just how euphoric he was as he threw the sand up and compared it's beauty to everything beautiful which was most probably because he never thought that he would feel the ground again while he was still alive.
