Jekyll,
Doctor Henry |
"Will Hyde die upon the scaffold? or will he find the
courage to release himself at the last
moment? God knows; I am careless; this is my true hour of
death, and what is to follow concerns another than myself. Here,
then, as I lay down the pen, and proceed to seal up my confession, I bring
the life of that unhappy Henry Jekyll to an end." |
