Tarry? Time doth not prevent? Little knowest thou! Aye, there it is, the diabolical circle. It is a charm. It harms her not, while all about me is askew. Whence came she here? She neither came nor went, and yet she was not there and now she is. A manly form did enter. Yet hath vanished into thin air. Yea, verily, it was none other than the devil himself in one of his divers forms, of which he hath aplenty. The very clock indulgeth in unseemly pranks. A strange influence hangs over me. I cannot now abide. I must depart from hence. My conscience bids me go.
