by jane austen (excerpt)

"well, then, let something be done for them; but that something need not be three thousand pounds. consider," she added, "that when the money is once parted with, it never can return. your sisters will marry, and it will be gone for ever. if, indeed, it could be restored to our poor little boy—"

"why, to be sure," said her husband, very gravely, "that would make great difference. the time may come when harry will regret that so large a sum was parted with. if he should have a numerous family, for instance, it would be a very convenient addition."

"to be sure it would."

"perhaps, then, it would be better for all parties, if the sum were diminished one half. —five hundred pounds would be a prodigious increase to their fortunes! "

"oh! beyond anything great! what brother on earth would do half so much for his sisters, even if really his sisters! and as it is—only half blood! —but you have such a generous spirit! "

"i would not wish to do any thing mean," he replied. "one had rather, on such occasions, do too much than too little. no one, at least, can think i have not done enough for them: even themselves, they can hardly expect more."

"there is no knowing what they may expect," said the lady, "but we are not to think of their expectations: the question is, what you can afford to do."

Read the excerpts from part 3 of "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." a rising sheet of water curved over him, fell down upon him, blinded him, strangled him! the cannon had taken a hand in the game. as he shook his head free from the commotion of the smitten water he heard the deflected shot humming through the air ahead, and in an instant it was cracking and smashing the branches in the forest beyond. *** a whiz and rattle of grapeshot among the branches high above his head roused him from his dream. the baffled cannoneer had fired him a random farewell. he sprang to his feet, rushed up the sloping bank, and plunged into the forest. *** as he is about to clasp her he feels a stunning blow upon the back of the neck; a blinding white light blazes all about him with a sound like the shock of a cannon—then all is darkness and silence! what function does the motif of the cannon serve throughout the story? the cannon continually pushes farquhar to continue his journey through his dream and back to reality. the cannon encourages farquhar to investigate whether his escape was a dream or reality. the cannon reminds farquhar that time is subjective and encourages him to move quickly in order to reach his home. the cannon represents farquhar’s romantic dream that he escaped his execution and will return home.
