The loneliness and the darkness bring horrible visions. When the house is quiet he lives the deed all over again, and fancies the apparition is before his eyes as it is before those of the audience. When, for fear of blabbing the secret in his sleep, he locks himself into a lonely chamber, another horrible phantasmagoria passes before his eyes -an image of his trial and con- Mr. Irving in America. 185 demnation by ghostly judges. Here, we see, is still the same truth enforced ; it is dread, and... not remorse, that harasses him. Mr. Irving portrays the man's abandonment and despair vividly and impressively. So finely and so truly is it done that one half expects to see the actor's visible and tangible self break forth from behind the curtains of his bed in waking terror at the ghastly dream which is being brought before the eyes of the audience by himself. One cannot even write of that awful scene without a tremor, as if it were once more visible to the outward sense. And the face of Mathias as he staggers forth after the phantoms of which his own image was the centre have vanished, in its haggard and insane frenzy, is itself an apparition which nothing can obliterate from the imagination of the beholder.
