Which of the following phrases is an
example of Irving’s use of humor?
“Tom consoled himself
for the loss of his
property, with the loss
of his wife, for he was a
man of fortitude.”
“He knows how to play
his cards when pretty
sure of his game.”
“He insisted that the
money found through
his means should be
employed in his
service.”
“ ‘You shall extort
bonds, foreclose
mortgages, drive the
merchants to
bankruptcy—.’ ”

Like Tom Walker, no doubt you weren’t surprised by the
appearance of the devil. You were prepared because you
knew that Tom —
had read or heard
about other people
meeting with the
devil
had met the devil
before
is the kind of man
who is not surprised
by anything
took the shortcut in
order to meet the
devil
