Reader's note

Poe gives us experiences that are on the margin of sanity, or on the border of unconciousness. His reports with extraordinary literalness and lucidity, the last swoon of nerves, as in the passage where he describes sensations of one who has just been sensations of one who has just been sentenced by the inquisition - I WAS sick -- sick unto death with that long agony; and when they at length unbound me, and I was permitted to sit, I felt that my senses were leaving me. The sentence -- the dread sentence of death -- was the last of distinct accentuation which reached my ears. After that, the sound of the inquisitorial voices seemed merged in one dreamy indeterminate hum. It conveyed to my soul the idea of revolution -- perhaps from its association in fancy with the burr of a mill wheel. This only for a brief period; for presently I heard no more. Yet, for a while, I saw; but with how terrible an exaggeration! I saw the lips of the black-robed judges. They appeared to me white -- whiter than the sheet upon which I trace these words -- and thin even to grotesqueness; thin with the intensity of their expression of firmness -- of immoveable resolution -- of stern contempt of human torture. - truly haunting in every sense of the word! Add this to your gothic library today!
