The statement that is an example of situational irony in "The Piece of String" is:
"Though Hauchecorne is a rogue, what most harms his reputation is the innocent act of picking up string from the ground."
This reflects situational irony because it is unexpected that a seemingly innocent action would lead to significant harm to Hauchecorne’s reputation, particularly as he is already viewed negatively as a rogue.
