chapter 9 Flashcards
Dr Lanyon's narrative
“I would not have…
sacrificed my left hand to help you”
“Lanyon, my life…
my honour, my reason, are all at your mercy”
“In my extreme…
distress of mind”
“some powders, a phial…
and a paper book”
“labouring under a blackness…
of distress that no fancy can exaggerate”
“we moved a body to old Dr…
Denman’s surgical theatre”
“phial, might have been about half full…
of a blood-red liquor, highly pungent”
“seemed to me to contain…
phosphorous and some volatile”
“a small man…
crouching against the pillars”
“I thought my visitor…
started and made greater haste”
“I was struck besides…
with the shocking expression of his face”
“his remarkable combination…
of great muscular activity and great apparent debility of constitution”
“old, subjective…
disturbance caused by his neighborhood”
“his clothes, although they were of rich and sober fabric…
were enormously too large for him in every measurement
“the collar sprawling…
wide upon his shoulders”
