I
replied
in
the
same
language
,
with
a
feeble
voice
,
"
I
believe
I
am
;
but
if
it
be
all
true
,
if
indeed
I
did
not
dream
,
I
am
sorry
that
I
am
still
alive
to
feel
this
misery
and
horror
.
"
"
For
that
matter
,
"
replied
the
old
woman
,
"
if
you
mean
about
the
gentleman
you
murdered
,
I
believe
that
it
were
better
for
you
if
you
were
dead
,
for
I
fancy
it
will
go
hard
with
you
!
However
,
that
's
none
of
my
business
;
I
am
sent
to
nurse
you
and
get
you
well
;
I
do
my
duty
with
a
safe
conscience
;
it
were
well
if
everybody
did
the
same
.
"
I
turned
with
loathing
from
the
woman
who
could
utter
so
unfeeling
a
speech
to
a
person
just
saved
,
on
the
very
edge
of
death
;
but
I
felt
languid
and
unable
to
reflect
on
all
that
had
passed
.
The
whole
series
of
my
life
appeared
to
me
as
a
dream
;
I
sometimes
doubted
if
indeed
it
were
all
true
,
for
it
never
presented
itself
to
my
mind
with
the
force
of
reality
.
As
the
images
that
floated
before
me
became
more
distinct
,
I
grew
feverish
;
a
darkness
pressed
around
me
;
no
one
was
near
me
who
soothed
me
with
the
gentle
voice
of
love
;
no
dear
hand
supported
me
.
The
physician
came
and
prescribed
medicines
,
and
the
old
woman
prepared
them
for
me
;
but
utter
carelessness
was
visible
in
the
first
,
and
the
expression
of
brutality
was
strongly
marked
in
the
visage
of
the
second
.
Who
could
be
interested
in
the
fate
of
a
murderer
but
the
hangman
who
would
gain
his
fee
?
These
were
my
first
reflections
,
but
I
soon
learned
that
Mr.
Kirwin
had
shown
me
extreme
kindness
.
He
had
caused
the
best
room
in
the
prison
to
be
prepared
for
me
(
wretched
indeed
was
the
best
)
;
and
it
was
he
who
had
provided
a
physician
and
a
nurse
.
It
is
true
,
he
seldom
came
to
see
me
,
for
although
he
ardently
desired
to
relieve
the
sufferings
of
every
human
creature
,
he
did
not
wish
to
be
present
at
the
agonies
and
miserable
ravings
of
a
murderer
.
He
came
,
therefore
,
sometimes
to
see
that
I
was
not
neglected
,
but
his
visits
were
short
and
with
long
intervals
.
One
day
,
while
I
was
gradually
recovering
,
I
was
seated
in
a
chair
,
my
eyes
half
open
and
my
cheeks
livid
like
those
in
death
.
I
was
overcome
by
gloom
and
misery
and
often
reflected
I
had
better
seek
death
than
desire
to
remain
in
a
world
which
to
me
was
replete
with
wretchedness
.
At
one
time
I
considered
whether
I
should
not
declare
myself
guilty
and
suffer
the
penalty
of
the
law
,
less
innocent
than
poor
Justine
had
been
.
Such
were
my
thoughts
when
the
door
of
my
apartment
was
opened
and
Mr.
Kirwin
entered
.
His
countenance
expressed
sympathy
and
compassion
;
he
drew
a
chair
close
to
mine
and
addressed
me
in
French
,
"
I
fear
that
this
place
is
very
shocking
to
you
;
can
I
do
anything
to
make
you
more
comfortable
?
"
"
I
thank
you
,
but
all
that
you
mention
is
nothing
to
me
;
on
the
whole
earth
there
is
no
comfort
which
I
am
capable
of
receiving
.
"
"
I
know
that
the
sympathy
of
a
stranger
can
be
but
of
little
relief
to
one
borne
down
as
you
are
by
so
strange
a
misfortune
.
But
you
will
,
I
hope
,
soon
quit
this
melancholy
abode
,
for
doubtless
evidence
can
easily
be
brought
to
free
you
from
the
criminal
charge
.
"
"
That
is
my
least
concern
;
I
am
,
by
a
course
of
strange
events
,
become
the
most
miserable
of
mortals
.
Persecuted
and
tortured
as
I
am
and
have
been
,
can
death
be
any
evil
to
me
?
"
"
Nothing
indeed
could
be
more
unfortunate
and
agonizing
than
the
strange
chances
that
have
lately
occurred
.
You
were
thrown
,
by
some
surprising
accident
,
on
this
shore
,
renowned
for
its
hospitality
,
seized
immediately
,
and
charged
with
murder
.
The
first
sight
that
was
presented
to
your
eyes
was
the
body
of
your
friend
,
murdered
in
so
unaccountable
a
manner
and
placed
,
as
it
were
,
by
some
fiend
across
your
path
.
