Reread the identified passage. Then, respond to the questions that follow:

Until this day, how well the house had kept its peace. How carefully it had inquired, "Who goes there? What's the password?" and, getting no answer from lonely foxes and whining cats, it had shut up its windows and drawn shades in an old-maidenly preoccupation with self-protection which bordered on a mechanical paranoia.

It quivered at each sound, the house did. If a sparrow brushed a window, the shade snapped up. The bird, startled, flew off! No, not even a bird must touch the house!

The house was an altar with ten thousand attendants, big, small, servicing, attending, in choirs. But the gods had gone away, - and the ritual of the religion continued senselessly, uselessly.

How does the idea that the house continues its routine "senselessly, uselessly" foreshadow, or hint at, the house's behavior at the end of the story? Explain, citing story details.
