Remove

,
'
Scrooge
exclaimed
,
'
I
can
not
bear
it
.
'
He
turned
upon
the
Ghost
,
and
seeing
that
it
looked
upon
him
with
a
face
,
in
which
in
some
strange
way
there
were
fragments
of
all
the
faces
it
had
shown
him
,
wrestled
with
it
.
'
Leave
me
!
Take
me
back
!
Haunt
me
no
longer
!
'
In
the
struggle
,
if
that
can
be
called
a
struggle
in
which
the
Ghost
with
no
visible
resistance
on
its
own
part
was
undisturbed
by
any
effort
of
its
adversary
,
Scrooge
observed
that
its
light
was
burning
high
and
bright
;
and
dimly
connecting
that
with
its
influence
over
him
,
he
seized
the
extinguisher-cap
,
and
by
a
sudden
action
pressed
it
down
upon
its
head
.
The
Spirit
dropped
beneath
it
,
so
that
the
extinguisher
covered
its
whole
form
;
but
though
Scrooge
pressed
it
down
with
all
his
force
,
he
could
not
hide
the
light
,
which
streamed
from
under
it
,
in
an
unbroken
flood
upon
the
ground
.
He
was
conscious
of
being
exhausted
,
and
overcome
by
an
irresistible
drowsiness
;
and
,
further
,
of
being
in
his
own
bedroom
.
He
gave
the
cap
a
parting
squeeze
,
in
which
his
hand
relaxed
;
and
had
barely
time
to
reel
to
bed
,
before
he
sank
into
a
heavy
sleep
.
A
waking
in
the
middle
of
a
prodigiously
tough
snore
,
and
sitting
up
in
bed
to
get
his
thoughts
together
,
Scrooge
had
no
occasion
to
be
told
that
the
bell
was
again
upon
the
stroke
of
One
.
He
felt
that
he
was
restored
to
consciousness
in
the
right
nick
of
time
,
for
the
especial
purpose
of
holding
a
conference
with
the
second
messenger
despatched
to
him
through
Jacob
Marley
's
intervention
.
But
,
finding
that
he
turned
uncomfortably
cold
when
he
began
to
wonder
which
of
his
curtains
this
new
spectre
would
draw
back
,
he
put
them
every
one
aside
with
his
own
hands
,
and
lying
down
again
,
established
a
sharp
look-out
all
round
the
bed
.
For
,
he
wished
to
challenge
the
Spirit
on
the
moment
of
its
appearance
,
and
did
not
wish
to
be
taken
by
surprise
,
and
made
nervous
.
Gentlemen
of
the
free-and-easy
sort
,
who
plume
themselves
on
being
acquainted
with
a
move
or
two
,
and
being
usually
equal
to
the
time-of-day
,
express
the
wide
range
of
their
capacity
for
adventure
by
observing
that
they
are
good
for
anything
from
pitch-and-toss
to
manslaughter
;
between
which
opposite
extremes
,
no
doubt
,
there
lies
a
tolerably
wide
and
comprehensive
range
of
subjects
.
Without
venturing
for
Scrooge
quite
as
hardily
as
this
,
I
do
n't
mind
calling
on
you
to
believe
that
he
was
ready
for
a
good
broad
field
of
strange
appearances
,
and
that
nothing
between
a
baby
and
rhinoceros
would
have
astonished
him
very
much
.
Now
,
being
prepared
for
almost
anything
,
he
was
not
by
any
means
prepared
for
nothing
;
and
,
consequently
,
when
the
Bell
struck
One
,
and
no
shape
appeared
,
he
was
taken
with
a
violent
fit
of
trembling
.
Five
minutes
,
ten
minutes
,
a
quarter
of
an
hour
went
by
,
yet
nothing
came
.
All
this
time
,
he
lay
upon
his
bed
,
the
very
core
and
centre
of
a
blaze
of
ruddy
light
,
which
streamed
upon
it
when
the
clock
proclaimed
the
hour
;
and
which
,
being
only
light
,
was
more
alarming
than
a
dozen
ghosts
,
as
he
was
powerless
to
make
out
what
it
meant
,
or
would
be
at
;
and
was
sometimes
apprehensive
that
he
might
be
at
that
very
moment
an
interesting
case
of
spontaneous
combustion
,
without
having
the
consolation
of
knowing
it
.
At
last
,
however
,
he
began
to
think
--
as
you
or
I
would
have
thought
at
first
;
for
it
is
always
the
person
not
in
the
predicament
who
knows
what
ought
to
have
been
done
in
it
,
and
would
unquestionably
have
done
it
too
--
at
last
,
I
say
,
he
began
to
think
that
the
source
and
secret
of
this
ghostly
light
might
be
in
the
adjoining
room
,
from
whence
,
on
further
tracing
it
,
it
seemed
to
shine
.
This
idea
taking
full
possession
of
his
mind
,
he
got
up
softly
and
shuffled
in
his
slippers
to
the
door
.
The
moment
Scrooge
's
hand
was
on
the
lock
,
a
strange
voice
called
him
by
his
name
,
and
bade
him
enter
.
He
obeyed
.
