You have only to impress its truth on the minds of all living men, and life will then, indeed, be the desert and the solitude; and I must do you, myself, and our mutual friends, the justice to observe, that let society only give fair play at one and the same time, as I flatter myself it is inclined to do, to your system of morals, and my system of metaphysics, and Scythrop's system of politics, and Mr Listless's system of manners, and Mr Toobad's system of religion, and the result will be as fine a mental chaos as even the immortal Kant himself could ever have hoped to see; in the prospect of which I rejoice.
Shortly after the disastrous termination of Scythrop's passion for Miss Emily Girouette, Mr Glowry found himself, much against his will, involved in a lawsuit, which compelled him to dance attendance on the High Court of Chancery. Scythrop was left alone at Nightmare Abbey. He was a burnt child, and dreaded the fire of female eyes.
Scythrop called again to Crow: Crow answered as before. Scythrop rang the bell: Raven appeared. 'Raven, said Scythrop, 'the clock is too fast. 'No, indeed, said Raven, who knew nothing of Scythrop's intentions; 'if any thing, it is too slow. 'Villain! said Scythrop, pointing the pistol at him; 'it is too fast. 'Yes yes too fast, I meant, said Raven, in manifest fear.
