I think the author Edgar Allen Poe uses sympathy i think he wants us to feel bad for him. He uses the word accosted hes talking about being "approached with hostility", I am thinking, the author chooses his words carefully kind of trying to make him seem like he's foolish. When you read it, it kinda makes you feel it too like when he says "warmth" you feel warm and "severe cold" . He says "bells' makes you kinds think of the sound. The author uses a lot of imagery. Some examples of this are "He accosted me with excessive warmth, for he had been drinking much", "He had on a tight-fitting parti-striped dress, and his head was surmounted by the conical cap and bells." " It is not the engagement, but the severe cold with which I perceive you are afflicted."
