  2. He sees rats because is village is dirty. Large swells on his body and his eyes were open. Sad because of all of the people that died for no reason they did nothing wrong but yet they died.

  35. He often saw rats because it was dirty. When he sw his boss dead he was struck with terror. I don't even know what feelings I felt because and it was kind of sad because you lost everything including your family and then when you see your family dead and then you die like right next to them before telling them goodbye that is sad. The other part that is sad is that a priest sees you and doesn't even help you. When I was at a wedding and a tornado was coming by and we had no place to go because of all the windows all over I mean who puts windows every where and doesn't have any shelter. But the tornado just past by.

  38. (1.) The man sees rats because his village is filthy and that is what is causing the Black Death.
    (2.)His boss had large swellings on his neck and armpits, also red oozing sore on his eyes.
    (3.)I understand this pague was real but how could he right this then die at the same time. That's proubably why he never mentions his name. Why wouldn't this guy write one last thing to people who knew him(if they weren't already dead). I feel sad and horrified while reading this but I believe the passage was a fake.....maybe.
    (4.)I was scared one time when I was left all alone at home and the tornado alarm was going off. I was left all by myself two hours after that until my parent came home.

Eventually I started crying and we went to look for him and after about 10 minutes we found him and we drove home and the power was out and it came back on and there was no longer a tornado warning.

(Ziggy had to stay at my grandma's for a reason, but that's another story.) We got to say hi and everything, plus we shut the door; bad decision because when we tried to open it, it wouldn't open. (At my grandma's house, the doorknob was broke, but I never thought it wouldn't open) and we were yelling for my grandma, while my sister started to cry. Eventually the doorknob let us open and we got out, while grandma was just coming downstairs. Boy did I have a talk with her!
