Another step before my fall, and the world had seen me no more and the death just avoided was of that very character which I had regarded as fabulous and frivolous in the tales respecting the Inquisition. To the victims of its tyranny, there was the choice of death with its direst physical agonies, or death with its most hideous moral horrors. I had been reserved for the latter. By long suffering my nerves had been unstrung, until I trembled at the sound of my own voice, and had become in every respect a fitting subject for the species of torture which awaited me. All of the following excerpts develop the plot through the narrator’s mental activity except __________. “I . . . congratulated myself upon the timely accident by which I had escaped.” “I trembled at the sound of my own voice . . . .” “[T]he death just avoided was of that very character which I had regarded as fabulous and frivolous . . . .” “By long suffering my nerves had been unstrung . . . .”
