Final answer:

Roderick Usher's physical characteristics include cadaverous complexion, large and luminous eyes, thin and pallid lips, delicate nose, finely molded chin, soft and thin hair, and an inordinate expansion above the temple region.

Step-by-step explanation:

Roderick Usher's physical characteristics are described as follows:

  • A cadaverousness of complexion
  • An eye large, liquid, and luminous beyond comparison
  • Lips somewhat thin and very pallid, but of a surpassingly beautiful curve
  • A nose of a delicate Hebrew model, but with a breadth of nostril unusual in similar formations
  • A finely moulded chin, speaking, in its want of prominence, of a want of moral energy
  • Hair of a more than web-like softness and tenuity
  • An inordinate expansion above the regions of the temple
