The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Great God Pan by Arthur Machen: "I was forgetting," he said, "that I too have something
to tell. I have received a letter from Dr. Harding of Buenos
Ayres. He says that he attended Meyrick for three weeks before
his death."
"And does he say what carried him off in the prime of
life? It was not fever?"
"No, it was not fever. According to the doctor, it was
an utter collapse of the whole system, probably caused by some
severe shock. But he states that the patient would tell him
nothing, and that he was consequently at some disadvantage in
treating the case."
