“Don’t speak about those days, Dorian: they are dead”.
“The dead linger sometimes. The man upstairs will not go away. He is sitting at the table with bowed head and outstretched arms. Alan! Alan! If you don’t come to my assistance I am wined. Why, they will hang me, Alan! Don’t you understand? They will hang me for what I have done”.
“There is no good in prolonging this scene. I absolutely refuse to do anything in the matter. It is insane of you to ask me”.
