Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.” She ran to the door, but her husband was before her, and catching her by the arm, held her tightly.
"What are you going to do?" he whispered hoarsely.
"It's my boy; it's Herbert!" she cried, struggling mechanically. "I forgot it was two miles away. What are you holding me for? Let go. I must open the door.
"For God's sake don't let it in," cried the old man, trembling.
"You're afraid of your own son," she cried, struggling. "Let me go. I'm coming, Herbert; I'm coming."

How does Mr. White’s reaction to Herbert’s coming home compare to that of his wife’s?

He is thrilled, but she is nervous.
He is horrified, but she is excited.
He is calm, but she is angry.
He is sorrowful, but she is happy.
