The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Herbert West: Reanimator by H. P. Lovecraft: The hideous occurrence itself was very simple, notable only for
what it implied.
The body on the table had risen with a blind
and terrible groping, and we had heard a sound. I should not call
that sound a voice, for it was too awful. And yet its timbre was
not the most awful thing about it. Neither was its message --
it had merely screamed, "Jump, Ronald, for God’s sake, jump!"
The awful thing was its source.
For it had come from the large
covered vat in that ghoulish corner of crawling black shadows.
