The moodiness of myusual temper increased to hatred of all things and of all mankind; whilefrom the sudden frequent and ungovernable outbursts of a fury to which Inow blindly abandoned myself, my uncomplaining wife, alas! was the mostusual and the most patient of sufferers.
One day she accompanied me upon some household errand into the cellar ofthe old building which our poverty compelled us to inhabit. The catfollowed me down the steep stairs, and nearly throwing me headlong, exasperated me to... madness. Uplifting an ax, and forgetting in my wraththe childish dread which had hitherto stayed my hand, I aimed a blow atthe animal, which of course would have proved instantly fatal had itdescended as I wished. But this blow was arrested by the hand of mywife. Goaded by the interference into a rage more than demoniacal, Iwithdrew my arm from her grasp and buried the ax in her brain. She felldead upon the spot without a groan.
This hideous murder accomplished, I set myself forthwith and with entiredeliberation to the task of concealing the body.
