Jekyll and Hyde chapter 7 Flashcards
‘That story’s at an end at least.
we shall never see more of Mr Hyde.’
‘The court was
very cool and a little damp, and full of premature twilight.’
‘The middle one of
three windows was half-way open… like some disconsolate prisoner, Utterson saw Dr Jekyll.’
‘I am very low utterson,
replied the doctor drearily, very low. It will not last long, thank god.’
‘before the smile was struck
out of his face and succeeded by an expression of such abject terror and despair, as from the very blood of the two gentlemen below.’
‘they saw it but for a glimpse
for the window was instantly thrust down; but that glimpse had been sufficient, and they turned and left the court without a word.’
‘God forgive us,
god forgive us’
