사일러스 마너(조지 엘리엇) - 7

  Strangely, when Silas had his fit at the chapel meeting, William was the only one who disagreed with the minister.

  "To me it looks more like the devil's work than God's," William had said. "Look deep into yourself, friend Silas. Is there any evil hiding in your soul?"

  Silas was hurt that his friend doubted him, and he began to be worried, too, about Sarah. She seemed to be showing signs of dislike towards him, but when he asked her about it, she did not give him any answer.

  At that time one of the chapel leaders was dangerously ill, and because he had no family, some of the young men offered to sit with him at night. one night Silas was sitting alone at the old man's beside. Time seemed to pass slowly in the quiet, dark room. But suddenly he realized that the man was no longer breathing. He was dead.

 

사일러스의 이상한 무의식이 사건의 빌미의 되고 있는 장면입니다. 그런데 윌리엄이란 친구가 어딘지 삐딱선을 타는 것 같죠.
