I’m new to internet tag. I hope I’m doing this right. I tag The Drew 102. I asked Drew before I tagged him. If anyone would like to be tagged in the future, let me know. I’m not comfortable tagging without permission (though I don’t mind being tagged).

No, you're doing it right!

Well, Lefty, I love the piece for its rich, colorful descriptions and the fact that I adore a good masqued ball. I'd love to have a set of rooms like the ones described in the story.
I don't know what insight I can offer except the fact that it's obviously a commentary by Poe on the need for the rich, cruel and greedy to get what they deserve. If they'd toughed it out with the rest of the folks outside, they might have avoided the plague.
