The Black Cat
by Edgar Allan Poe (excerpt)
For the most wild, yet most homely narrative which I am about to pen. I neither expect nor solicit belief. Mad indeed would I be to expect it.
in a case where my very senses reject their own evidence. Yet mad am I not-and very surely do I not dream. But tomorrow I die, and to-
day I would unburthen my soul. My immediate purpose is to place before the world, plainly, succinctly, and without comment a series of
mere household events. In their consequences, these events have terrified-have tortured-have destroyed me. Yet I will not attempt to
expound them. To me, they have presented little but Horror--to many they will seem less terrible than barroques. Hereafter, perhaps
some intellect may be found which will reduce my phantasm to the common-place-some intellect more calm, more logical and far less
excitable than my own, which will perceive, in the circumstances I detail with awe, nothing more than an ordinary succession of very natural
causes and effects
