Answer:

The effect that Edgar Allan Poe gives with the varied sentence length on the tone of the passage of The tell-tale heart is They represent the panic of the narrator

Step-by-step explanation:

Edgar Allan Poe used to play not only with poetical devices but also with the writing as a form of art that can manifest many sensations without using any pictures, only words, he plays with the rhythm the sound the repetition and composition, here we have the long length sentences with give us a full idea a detailed one, while the short ones are stressing and disappearing since they only give a glimpse of the whole, so having them together within the story helps to emphasize the fear and convey it to the readers.
