As you saw her today she is
and she will remain...

:10:10
Believe me, sir... I bear you
no malice.

:10:14
Were things otherwise...
:10:16
...I should welcome to our
family joyously.

:10:19
But under the circumstances it
is quite impossible.

:10:23
But why do you assume that...
:10:25
...you are dying?
:10:28
There are many reasons.
:10:30
Pray, give me one then.
:10:36
Madeline and I are like figures
of fine glass.

:10:40
The slightest touch and we
may shatter.

:10:44
Both of us suffer from a morbid
acuteness of the senses.

:10:49
Mine is the worst, for having existed
along and the both of us are inflicted with it.

:10:54
Any sort of food...
:10:56
...more exotic than
the most pallid mashes...

:10:59
...unendurable to my
taste buds.

:11:02
Any sort of garment other
than the softest...

:11:05
...is agony to my flesh.
:11:08
My eyes are tormented by all...
:11:10
but the faintest illumination.
:11:13
All these assail me constantly...
:11:17
...as I've said...
:11:19
the sounds of any degree whatsoever
inspire me with terror.

:11:23
That's why your servant asked me
to remove my boots.

:11:26
Yes. And even so I could hear you
coming.

:11:31
Every footstep. Every rustle
of your clothes.

:11:34
I could hear your horse approaching.
:11:37
Hear the clatter of the hoofs
across the courtyard.

:11:40
Your knock!
:11:42
The grating of the door bolt was
like a sword struck to my ears.

:11:49
I can hear the scratch of the
rat claws within the stone wall.

:11:55
Mr. Winthrop, three quarters
of my family...

:11:59
...have fallen into madness.
