Answer 2

After waking her husband with a wild cry, Mrs. White exclaimed, "It's Herbert!" This statement is from the short story "The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs.

Step-by-step explanation:

After waking her husband with a wild cry, Mrs. White exclaimed, "It's Herbert!"

This statement is from the short story "The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs. Mrs. White had just made a wish on the monkey's paw, a magical artifact rumored to grant three wishes. When she heard the knock on the door, she immediately assumed it was their deceased son Herbert returning to life.

This moment in the story creates suspense and foreshadows the tragic consequences of making a wish with the monkey's paw.
