Which line from the opening paragraph of "The Black Cat" best represents

Poe's use of foreshadowing?
For the most wild, yet most homely narrative which I am
about to
pen, neither expect nor solicit belief. Mad indeed
would be to expect a it, in a case where my very senses
reject their own evidence. Yet, mad am not - and very
surely do I not dream. But to-morrow I die, and to-day I
would unburden my soul. My immediate purpose is to
place before the world, plainly, succinctly, and without
comment, a series of mere household events. In their
consequences, these events have terrified
have tortured
have destroyed me.
