Même la mort est soumise à de nombreuses règles de droit (sort du cadavre, respect dû à la mémoire des morts).

The revenge-minded Montresor convinces Fortunato to join him deep in the catacombs, ostensibly to sample some rare wine. The conclusion to this suspenseful story is memorable, to say the least.
