For two months, however, I was true to my determination; for two months, I led a life of such
severity as I had never before attained to, and enjoyed the
compensations of an approving conscience. But time
began at last to obliterate the freshness of my alarm; the
praises of conscience began to grow into a thing of
course; I began to be tortured with throes and longings,
as of Hyde struggling after freedom; and at last, in an
hour of moral weakness, I once again compounded and
swallowed the transforming draught.
