I
had
long
since
prepared
my
tincture
;
I
purchased
at
once
,
from
a
firm
of
wholesale
chemists
,
a
large
quantity
of
a
particular
salt
which
I
knew
,
from
my
experiments
,
to
be
the
last
ingredient
required
;
and
late
one
accursed
night
,
I
compounded
the
elements
,
watched
them
boil
and
smoke
together
in
the
glass
,
and
when
the
ebullition
had
subsided
,
with
a
strong
glow
of
courage
,
drank
off
the
potion
.
The
most
racking
pangs
succeeded
:
a
grinding
in
the
bones
,
deadly
nausea
,
and
a
horror
of
the
spirit
that
can
not
be
exceeded
at
the
hour
of
birth
or
death
.
Then
these
agonies
began
swiftly
to
subside
,
and
I
came
to
myself
as
if
out
of
a
great
sickness
.
There
was
something
strange
in
my
sensations
,
something
indescribably
new
and
,
from
its
very
novelty
,
incredibly
sweet
.
I
felt
younger
,
lighter
,
happier
in
body
;
within
I
was
conscious
of
a
heady
recklessness
,
a
current
of
disordered
sensual
images
running
like
a
mill-race
in
my
fancy
,
a
solution
of
the
bonds
of
obligation
,
an
unknown
but
not
an
innocent
freedom
of
the
soul
.
I
knew
myself
,
at
the
first
breath
of
this
new
life
,
to
be
more
wicked
,
tenfold
more
wicked
,
sold
a
slave
to
my
original
evil
;
and
the
thought
,
in
that
moment
,
braced
and
delighted
me
like
wine
.
I
stretched
out
my
hands
,
exulting
in
the
freshness
of
these
sensations
;
and
in
the
act
,
I
was
suddenly
aware
that
I
had
lost
in
stature
.
There
was
no
mirror
,
at
that
date
,
in
my
room
;
that
which
stands
beside
me
as
I
write
,
was
brought
there
later
on
and
for
the
very
purpose
of
these
transformations
.
The
night
,
however
,
was
far
gone
into
the
morning
--
the
morning
,
black
as
it
was
,
was
nearly
ripe
for
the
conception
of
the
day
--
the
inmates
of
my
house
were
locked
in
the
most
rigorous
hours
of
slumber
;
and
I
determined
,
flushed
as
I
was
with
hope
and
triumph
,
to
venture
in
my
new
shape
as
far
as
to
my
bedroom
.
I
crossed
the
yard
,
wherein
the
constellations
looked
down
upon
me
,
I
could
have
thought
,
with
wonder
,
the
first
creature
of
that
sort
that
their
unsleeping
vigilance
had
yet
disclosed
to
them
;
I
stole
through
the
corridors
,
a
stranger
in
my
own
house
;
and
coming
to
my
room
,
I
saw
for
the
first
time
the
appearance
of
Edward
Hyde
.
I
must
here
speak
by
theory
alone
,
saying
not
that
which
I
know
,
but
that
which
I
suppose
to
be
most
probable
.
The
evil
side
of
my
nature
,
to
which
I
had
now
transferred
the
stamping
efficacy
,
was
less
robust
and
less
developed
than
the
good
which
I
had
just
deposed
.
Again
,
in
the
course
of
my
life
,
which
had
been
,
after
all
,
nine-tenths
a
life
of
effort
,
virtue
,
and
control
,
it
had
been
much
less
exercised
and
much
less
exhausted
.
And
hence
,
as
I
think
,
it
came
about
that
Edward
Hyde
was
so
much
smaller
,
slighter
,
and
younger
than
Henry
Jekyll
.
Even
as
good
shone
upon
the
countenance
of
the
one
,
evil
was
written
broadly
and
plainly
on
the
face
of
the
other
.
Evil
besides
(
which
I
must
still
believe
to
be
the
lethal
side
of
man
)
had
left
on
that
body
an
imprint
of
deformity
and
decay
.
And
yet
when
I
looked
upon
that
ugly
idol
in
the
glass
,
I
was
conscious
of
no
repugnance
,
rather
of
a
leap
of
welcome
.
This
,
too
,
was
myself
.
It
seemed
natural
and
human
.
In
my
eyes
it
bore
a
livelier
image
of
the
spirit
,
it
seemed
more
express
and
single
,
than
the
imperfect
and
divided
countenance
I
had
been
hitherto
accustomed
to
call
mine
.
And
in
so
far
I
was
doubtless
right
.
I
have
observed
that
when
I
wore
the
semblance
of
Edward
Hyde
,
none
could
come
near
to
me
at
first
without
a
visible
misgiving
of
the
flesh
.
This
,
as
I
take
it
,
was
because
all
human
beings
,
as
we
meet
them
,
are
commingled
out
of
good
and
evil
:
and
Edward
Hyde
,
alone
in
the
ranks
of
mankind
,
was
pure
evil
.
I
lingered
but
a
moment
at
the
mirror
:
the
second
and
conclusive
experiment
had
yet
to
be
attempted
;
it
yet
remained
to
be
seen
if
I
had
lost
my
identity
beyond
redemption
and
must
flee
before
daylight
from
a
house
that
was
no
longer
mine
;
and
hurrying
back
to
my
cabinet
,
I
once
more
prepared
and
drank
the
cup
,
once
more
suffered
the
pangs
of
dissolution
,
and
came
to
myself
once
more
with
the
character
,
the
stature
,
and
the
face
of
Henry
Jekyll
.
That
night
I
had
come
to
the
fatal
cross-roads
.
Had
I
approached
my
discovery
in
a
more
noble
spirit
,
had
I
risked
the
experiment
while
under
the
empire
of
generous
or
pious
aspirations
,
all
must
have
been
otherwise
,
and
from
these
agonies
of
death
and
birth
,
I
had
come
forth
an
angel
instead
of
a
fiend
.
The
drug
had
no
discriminating
action
;
it
was
neither
diabolical
nor
divine
;
it
but
shook
the
doors
of
the
prison-house
of
my
disposition
;
and
like
the
captives
of
Philippi
,
that
which
stood
within
ran
forth
.
At
that
time
my
virtue
slumbered
;
my
evil
,
kept
awake
by
ambition
,
was
alert
and
swift
to
seize
the
occasion
;
and
the
thing
that
was
projected
was
Edward
Hyde
.
Hence
,
although
I
had
now
two
characters
as
well
as
two
appearances
,
one
was
wholly
evil
,
and
the
other
was
still
the
old
Henry
Jekyll
,
that
incongruous
compound
of
whose
reformation
and
improvement
I
had
already
learned
to
despair
.
The
movement
was
thus
wholly
toward
the
worse
.
Even
at
that
time
,
I
had
not
yet
conquered
my
aversion
to
the
dryness
of
a
life
of
study
.
I
would
still
be
merrily
disposed
at
times
;
and
as
my
pleasures
were
(
to
say
the
least
)
undignified
,
and
I
was
not
only
well
known
and
highly
considered
,
but
growing
toward
the
elderly
man
,
this
incoherency
of
my
life
was
daily
growing
more
unwelcome
.
It
was
on
this
side
that
my
new
power
tempted
me
until
I
fell
in
slavery
.
I
had
but
to
drink
the
cup
,
to
doff
at
once
the
body
of
the
noted
professor
,
and
to
assume
,
like
a
thick
cloak
,
that
of
Edward
Hyde
.
I
smiled
at
the
notion
;
it
seemed
to
me
at
the
time
to
be
humorous
;
and
I
made
my
preparations
with
the
most
studious
care
.
I
took
and
furnished
that
house
in
Soho
,
to
which
Hyde
was
tracked
by
the
police
;
and
engaged
as
housekeeper
a
creature
whom
I
well
knew
to
be
silent
and
unscrupulous
.
On
the
other
side
,
I
announced
to
my
servants
that
a
Mr.
Hyde
(
whom
I
described
)
was
to
have
full
liberty
and
power
about
my
house
in
the
square
;
and
to
parry
mishaps
,
I
even
called
and
made
myself
a
familiar
object
,
in
my
second
character
.
