Read the passage from "the tell-tale heart." and every night, about midnight, i turned the latch of his door and opened it-oh so gently! and then, when i had made an opening sufficient for my head, i put in a dark lantern, all closed, closed, that no light shone out, and then i thrust in my head. oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly i thrust it in! i moved it slowly-very, very slowly, so that i might not disturb the old man's sleep. 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. ha! would a madman have been so wise as this? by visualizing the scene the reader can conclude that the narrator is gleeful. indifferent. irritated. curious.

The statements that show that the narrator is gleeful are: "Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in!" and "Ha! Would a madman have been so wise as this?".
