  5. Example Tone Paragraph • Quote: “I say—I say—God is dead!” (226) • Tone: Enraged • Example paragraph: (TS) The tone of John Proctor’s statement, “I say—I say—God is dead!” (226) could be described as enraged. (SS) One indication of this tone is through the use of the exclamation point. (EX) This punctuation mark is used when a statement should be said in a powerful manner and Proctor exclaims this statement because he is angry. (SS) Another indication of this tone is the repetition of the words “I say.” (EX) This repetition indicates a loss of words because he is frustrated due to the fact the judges refuse to believe the truth, choosing instead believe the lies of the girls, and this frustration intensifies the enraged tone. (SS) A final way this quote emphasizes an enraged tone is the usage of the short, terse words. (EX) When one is enraged one does not typically think through his words, and these short words demonstrate his initial reaction to the situation. (CS) The enraged tone best fits this phrase because it emphasizes Proctor’s anger at the judges for not believing the truth of the situation.
