Maria seems for progressive for the time. This is either an indication of independence or of satisfaction. Regardless of the reason why Maria thinks this way, she seems to have a different outlook in life than the rest of the women in the story.

Is this a way of saying that Joe is a drunk or Joe isn't able to handle his drinks? I would say it's more of an alcoholic situation since they say previously that they hoped he wouldn't come in drunk.

That's what she wanted no? The logic is sound proof but this seems like they re trying to be sarcastic.

I'm confused as to if those blanks are supposed to be fill in or are they to spark the imagination? They could also be a pause.

There seems to be a lot of personification in James Joyce writing. Though I also notice that the sights provided are either really warm or really cold depending on the scene.

It seems that the same things that were funny and adorable back then are the same now. I wonder if humor changes overtime depending on the period that they wrote?

Here the air is personified to have no pity. Though this helps to understand that the air was rough. I wonder if personification can be analyzed computationally.

I am confused as to why this excited the narrator. Or even just how little he saw resulting in other senses become enhanced.

Is this a real place? If so it seems lovely for the time in summer that this is placed in.

Is this a real word or is it more of a sound? How can one be certain such as trying to figure this out using python. Is word net capable of understanding that a word is a sound? Possible since it's repeated or is it more of a given since its in quotes?

Such short dialogue seems to create suspense. Especially when it seems like just a response is a "paragraph" in itself.

This must be referring to what they mean by "queer" as "uncanny"? Though I am not entirely sure. Possible to use word net?

This gives a form of sarcasm but I' not sure if it is because of the continuation or because of the previous sentence that seems like a chuckle. Almost like a dismissal of approval.

This is another instance of the character displaying their thought process while being uneasy. You can almost hear the hesitation while reading this.

Why does it have a exclamation mark if the voice is faint? Such as am I supposed to believe it's faint or am I supposed to believe it's said loudly?

I find it interesting that they would need to quote select since it its not really necessary to quote it unless the narrator thought it was absurd of Eccles.

This seems to be recurring. The way in which the word is spelled seems that either the person doesn't know how to say the word or they have some kind of accent.

Why does it cut off? Is this for emphasis so that we take account of it or is it more of a don't care about it too much?

In most of the pauses, there is silence caused by "—". I'm not sure if it is the stutter or this is more of a thought in process?

It is notable that there is a lot of dialog between characters in this story. What is somewhat noticeable is that within that dialog it seems to have loud punctuation. I wonder how load this story is.

Not sure if anyone read this in the same way as I did, but I can almost feel the fear in this quote. Not even paying attention to the 'gasped' that follows this. By itself the dialect seems like a natural reaction without description that needs to be followed.

I noticed that within the first paragraph there are already a lot of verbs. Almost has a ring to it as if the author is trying to rhyme.

She is throughly concerned or at least has a spark of interest/compassion hearing the news of the mans untimely death. More than anyone else in her family.

For this girls age if she wants a garden party it seems like she is much more mature than normal. I wonder if you can search this to check for maturity.

Now if he forbade it, why is it that he wrote this? Though probably after Ezra died Mr. Candy thought it would be okay. Especially because of the way in which Ezra speaks of Mr. Franklin.

If his father has a bank that would have been really easy to hide there but I suppose that he wasn't really thinking at the time. This should have really seem suspicious but since it is Godfrey no suspicion was really given.

The way in which Ezra writes is very reliant on time. The narrative is written more in a journal form. This gives a way in to finally having a chronological time fame of events, thus more organization.

Ezra seems to keep track of time often. Sometimes Ezra gives the date but more commonly they seem to give exact time of day. This might be a way of verifying that Ezra is organized.

The way in which the writing is done instead of using exclamation points being used, the words are capitalized instead. If anyone where to look for ways in which the text was loud you'd have to include a case for which the words are capital rather than just searching punctuation marks.

The way in which Mr. Franklin writes of the events makes Betteredge seem almost crazy or delusional. At this point it seems even Betteredge is an unreliable source looking back.

Why is it that this is all capitalized. Is it for emphasis of its importance or it is it a mere way of showing a scream? It might be of joy but also out of need?

I did not expect this to be his client but now everything is starting to clear up. Now I have a bigger suspicion of Ablewhite but I'm not sure of the possible reason yet. It might be useful to go back and connect the dots on Ablewhite since I had not suspected of him until now.

This is another instance of religion in regards to description. Why can it not just be hero, why does it have to be a "Christian" Hero?

This really comes to illustrate the emotion in the need to express religious devotion. I find it helpful that the repetition occurs within the same paragraph. This can be searched by the search of repetition of similar phrases.

Betteredge thinks this is why Mr. Franklin said it but I think it might be only to distract from being Mr. Franklin. I think it might be Mr. Franklin who took the diamond just because it seems like he is hiding something because of how the writer portrays Mr. Franklin and it's always the less likely person.

It is way too easy to think that Rosanna would have said something to Mr. Franklin but when Rosanna is the most obvious than its less likely it was her. Sergeant Cuff might be onto something if he starts to question Mr. Franklin by the way he is being so closed.

I think because Betteredge has pitied Rosanna Spearman this is a clear indication that from now onward I can't really trust Mr. Betteredge to give complete information to the reader. Though Mr. Betteredge does have a point in not pointing fingers without more evidence. I would assume Rosanna is just who the author is using to distract the reader from who truly stole the diamond since Rosanna seems too easy of a target.

Overall, I think this was the most logical way to go about things but it still wouldn't really mean that the person stole the diamond so I'm keeping an open mind. The way that there have been so many plot twists makes it seem that this is only to get the reader to assume that this might be the best clue.

It seems to be that the narrator has a mistress. This mistress in particular seems to be his boss or something of the sort. By the way he speaks of her he has upmost respect for her but also only love for her. I don't necessarily know why the narrator would have gotten married if he already had a mistress since he refers to her as my lady. There is also the possibility that the word, 'mistress' is used only to refer as a boss or in control figure.

I found that in this line I was extremely concerned that Miss Rachel had actually refused Mr. Franklin. The plot twist that it was rather Mr. Godfrey Ablewhite that had proposed was all together shocking. I think I must have not paid more attention to the style of writing but it could have been predicted that it was him if I would have recalled at the time the way the author wrote about Mr. Godfrey Ablewhite in the previous chapters.
