Detailed explanation-1: -What does the narrator’s action as described in the following sentence from “The Tell-Tale Heart” tell you about him? It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed. He is very cautious.
Detailed explanation-2: -The narrator is guilty of the murder because he was aware of what he was doing and the murder was too planned out for him to be insane. An insane person, however, would not know what they were doing and would not proceed with so much planning and caution.
Detailed explanation-3: -In this case, the narrator is trying to prove his sanity. One bit of proof he offers is his ability to exercise “dissimulation” (to act or speak one way to mask true feelings or intention) with the old man.
