Wild thoughts danced through my mind. They were not good,serious thoughts. They were the wild passions of an evil and cruel stranger. But inside myself I felt younger, lighter, more carefree than ever before.‘If this is pure evil,’I thought,‘I like it.’
But that was not the only difference between the two men. Henry Jekyll had a kind, open, honest face.Pure evil stared out of Edward Hyde's eyes.I felt no dislike,however.Indeed, I welcomed him. Edward Hyde was me,young and strong and full of life.
