and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease
had sharpened my senses-not destroyed-not dulled
them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all
things in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things
in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how
healthily-how calmly I can tell you the whole story.
Read the excerpt from "The Black Cat."
I not only neglected, but ill-used them. For Pluto, however,
I still retained sufficient regard to restrain me from
maltreating him, as I made no scruple of maltreating the
rabbits, the monkey, or even the dog, when by accident, or
through affection, they came in my way. But my disease
grew upon me--for what disease is like Alcohol!--and at
length even Pluto, who was now becoming old, and
consequently somewhat peevish-even Pluto began to
experience the effects of my ill temper.
