Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.It is one thing to mortify curiosity, another to conquer it; and it may be doubted if, from that day forth, Utterson desired the society of his surviving friend with the same eagerness. He thought of him kindly; but his thoughts were disquieted and fearful. He went to call indeed; but he was perhaps relieved to be denied admittance; perhaps, in his heart, he preferred to speak with Poole upon the doorstep and surrounded by the air and sounds of the open city, rather than to be admitted into that house of voluntary bondage, and to sit and speak with its inscrutable recluse.

A
resents Dr. Jekyll.

Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."And now,” said Mr. Utterson, as soon as Poole had left them, "you have heard the news?”The doctor shuddered. "They were crying it in the square,” he said. "I heard them in my dining-room.”"One word,” said the lawyer. "Carew was my client, but so are you, and I want to know what I am doing. You have not been mad enough to hide this fellow?”"Utterson, I swear to God,” cried the doctor, "I swear to God I will never set eyes on him again. I bind my honour to you that I am done with him in this world. It is all at an end.
