Quotation from: VilletteWritten by: Charlotte Bronte |

Reader; I felt alarmed! Why? you will ask. What was there in this simple and somewhat pretty sleeping-closet to startle the most timid? Merely this--These articles of furniture could not be real, solid arm- chairs, looking-glasses, and washstands--they must be the ghosts of such articles; or, if this were denied as too wild an hypothesis--and, confounded as I was, I _did_ deny it--there remained but to conclude that I had myself passed into an abnormal state of mind; in short, that I was very ill and delirious: and even then, mine was the strangest figment with which delirium had ever harassed a victim.
