01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:59,774
to gaze into the nature
of a thing and see it.

897
01:28:01,734 --> 01:28:05,321
She saw and loved

898
01:28:05,405 --> 01:28:06,447
and wedded

899
01:28:08,658 --> 01:28:10,493
this artist.

900
01:28:12,412 --> 01:28:14,330
I was intense,

901
01:28:14,956 --> 01:28:17,667
studious, austere.

902
01:28:19,043 --> 01:28:21,337
For these qualities,
she loved me,

903
01:28:24,173 --> 01:28:27,927
but in truth, I already
had a bride in my art.

904
01:28:30,263 --> 01:28:32,140
I did love her greatly, though.

905
01:28:33,891 --> 01:28:36,644
She was a maiden of
the rarest beauty,

906
01:28:37,312 --> 01:28:40,523
innocent, full of glee,

907
01:28:40,606 --> 01:28:43,276
all light and smiles,

908
01:28:44,319 --> 01:28:46,279
loving and cherishing
all things,

909
01:28:47,405 --> 01:28:50,325
hating only the art
which was her rival,

910
01:28:51,409 --> 01:28:55,246
dreading only the
palette and brushes

911
01:28:55,330 --> 01:29:00,293
and other untoward instruments
which deprived her of me.

912
01:29:02,086 --> 01:29:03,463
It was such a terrible thing

913
01:29:03,546 --> 01:29:06,299
for her to hear me
speak of my desire

914
01:29:06,382 --> 01:29:09,135
to portray her upon my canvas.

915
01:29:10,762 --> 01:29:13,139
But she was humble and obedient

916
01:29:14,807 --> 01:29:17,685
and sat meekly for many weeks

917
01:29:18,478 --> 01:29:21,105
in the high, dark turret chamber

918
01:29:22,273 --> 01:29:25,318
where light dripped
upon the pale canvas.

919
01:29:26,569 --> 01:29:28,821
I took glory in the work.

920
01:29:28,905 --> 01:29:31,783
From hour to hour, day to day,

921
01:29:32,575 --> 01:29:35,995
passionate, wild, moody.

922
01:29:39,248 --> 01:29:42,085
I became lost in reveries.

923
01:29:43,503 --> 01:29:46,339
So much so that I would
not see that the light,

924
01:29:46,422 --> 01:29:49,300
which fell so ghastly
in that lone turret,

925
01:29:49,384 --> 01:29:51,803
withered her health
and her spirits.

926
01:29:51,886 --> 01:29:55,056
She pined visibly to all but me.

927
01:29:59,227 --> 01:30:02,105
She remained
uncomplainingly silent.

928
01:30:04,524 --> 01:30:08,152
For she saw that I
had taken a fervid

929
01:30:08,236 --> 01:30:10,863
and burning pleasure
in her portrait

930
01:30:12,073 --> 01:30:14,367
and wrought, day and
night, to adamantly depict

931
01:30:14,450 --> 01:30:17,453
the innocent creature
who so loved me,

932
01:30:18,746 --> 01:30:22,875
yet who grew daily more
dispirited and weak.

933
01:30:24,836 --> 01:30:26,295
Some who beheld the portrait

934
01:30:26,379 --> 01:30:29,215
spoke of its
resemblance in low words

935
01:30:30,842 --> 01:30:32,260
as of a mighty marvel,

936
01:30:33,511 --> 01:30:36,681
and a proof a lot less of
the power of the painter

937
01:30:38,349 --> 01:30:39,725
than of his deep love for her

938
01:30:39,809 --> 01:30:42,311
whom he depicted so
surpassingly well.

939
01:30:47,733 --> 01:30:48,860
But at length,

940
01:30:50,319 --> 01:30:53,030
as my labor drew nearer
to its conclusion,

941
01:30:54,657 --> 01:30:56,826
none were admitted
into the turret.

942
01:30:58,202 --> 01:31:01,622
For I had grown wild in
the ardor of my work,

943
01:31:01,706 --> 01:31:04,041
barely turning my
eyes from the portrait

944
01:31:04,125 --> 01:31:07,044
even to regard the
countenance of my wife,

945
01:31:09,088 --> 01:31:11,132
I would not see that the tints

946
01:31:11,215 --> 01:31:13,593
which I spread upon the canvas

947
01:31:14,594 --> 01:31:16,179
were drawn directly
from the cheeks

948
01:31:16,262 --> 01:31:18,347
of her who sat across from me.

949
01:31:19,390 --> 01:31:21,893
And when many weeks
had passed, mm,

950
01:31:21,976 --> 01:31:23,853
but little remained to do,

951
01:31:25,229 --> 01:31:28,900
save one brush upon the mouth
and one tint upon the eye.

952
01:31:29,859 --> 01:31:32,612
The spirit of my
lady flickered up

953
01:31:32,695 --> 01:31:35,656
as the flame within
the socket of a lamp.

954
01:31:38,409 --> 01:31:39,911
The brush was given,

955
01:31:41,746 --> 01:31:43,581
the tint was placed,

956
01:31:45,416 --> 01:31:47,668
and for one moment
I stood in trance

957
01:31:47,752 --> 01:31:50,463
before the work
which I had wrought

958
01:31:51,422 --> 01:31:54,592

loudest of voices,

would I finally turn
to regard my beloved.
