Answer:

The description of Usher's house leaves the text in a mood of melancholy, uncomfortable.

Explanation:

Usher's house is described in Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Fall of the House of Usher". The narrator's description of the house is far from pleasant. The house looks abandoned, dirty, inelegant and uncomfortable. The narrator of the story expresses a feeling of melancholy, discomfort and repudiation while describing the characteristics of the house. These feelings take over the text and make the narrative take on that mood.
