Read the excerpt from “the scarlet ibis.”

the lightning was near now, and from fear he walked so close behind me he kept stepping on my heels. the faster i walked, the faster he walked, so i began to run. the rain was coming, roaring through the pines, and then, like a bursting roman candle, a gum tree ahead of us was shattered by a bolt of lightning. when the deafening peal of thunder had died, and in the moment before the rain arrived, i heard doodle, who had fallen behind, cry out, “brother, brother, don’t leave me! don’t leave me! ”

the sense of sound to emphasize the frustration of the narrator.
the sense of sound to emphasize the intense volume of the storm.
