2 points 6. What literary element is used in the following quote from "The Tell-Tale
Heart"? "...a low dull quick sound, such as a watch makes when enveloped
in cotton."

Imagery

Explanation:

Imagery is a powerful tool used by many writers. It refers to the use of figurative and metaphorical language to create images in the mind of the reader through their senses.

Edgar Allan Poe does this in his short story The Tell-Tale Heart, as well. He describes a sound as low, dull, and quick, like the one a watch wrapped up in cotton makes. We can imagine what that sound is like, which makes us feel like we are a part of the story.
