• I must not only punish but punish with impunity.
• It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as was my wont(习惯), to smile in his face, and he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation(死亡).
• Many of his works are generally considered part of the dark romanticism genre, a literary reaction to transcendentalism, which Poe strongly disliked.
• "To your vaults."
• "My friend, no; I will not impose upon your good nature. I perceive you have an engagement. Luchresi -"
• "I have no engagement; - come."

Edgar Allen Poe
• Poe's best known fiction works are Gothic, a genre he followed to appease the public taste.
• His most recurring(repeated) themes deal with questions of death, including its physical signs, the reanimation of the dead, and mourning.
• "Luchresi cannot tell Amontillado from Sherry."
• "And yet some fools will have it that his taste is a match for your own."
• "Come, let us go."
• "Whither?"
• Montresor lured Fortunato into vaults by saying "My dear Fortunato, you are luckily met. How remarkably well you are looking today. But I have received a pipe of what passes for Amontillado, and I have my doubts".
• "Let us go, nevertheless. The cold is merely nothing. Amontillado! You have been imposed upon. And as for Luchresi, he cannot distinguish Sherry from Amontillado."
Plot
• Montresor encountered Fortunato at dusk, one evening during the madness of the carnival season when Fortunato was drunk, dizzy, and wearing a jester's motley(小丑穿的杂色花衣).
• The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed(发誓) revenge.
• You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that I gave utterance to a threat.
• "Amontillado!" • "I have my doubts." • "Amontillado!" • "And I must satisfy them." • "Amontillado!"
• "As you are engaged, I am on my way to Luchresi. If any one has a critical turn it is he. He will tell me -"
• "My friend, no. It is not the engagement, but the severe cold with which I perceive you are afflicted. The vaults are insufferably damp. They are encrusted with nitre(硝石)."

The Excerpt of Beginning
• "How?" said he. "Amontillado? A pipe? Impossible! And in the middle of the carnival!"
• "I have my doubts," I replied; "and I was silly enough to pay the full Amontillado price without consulting you in the matter. You were not to be found, and I was fearful of losing a bargain."
