The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Lock and Key Library by Julian Hawthorne, Ed.: eyes are closed now, but I know them too; their odious leer, and
the venomous hatred with which they can glare at me from their
bloodshot setting. But the time has come at last. Never again
shall their passion insult me, or their fury degrade me in slavish
terror. There he lies; there at my mercy, the man who for fifteen
years has made God's light a shame to me, and His darkness a
terror. The end has come at last,--the only end possible, the only
end left me. On his head be the blood and the crime! God
almighty, I am not guilty! The end has come; I can bear my burden
no farther.
"Beareth all things, endureth all things."
