Do you think Melville is consoled in death of his miserable life by the vainglorious praises of the living? DO YOU THINK MELVILLE IS CONSOLED IN DEATH OF HIS MISERABLE LIFE BY THE VAINGLORIOUS PRAISES OF THE LIVING
r two of the strands were omitted, the result would be a feeble rope, easily broken, and we would live. But by our own vices is our mortality made manifest, by our own wrongs are we wronged. By now you may be beginning to feel the impulses of indignation arising in your breast, for who am I, the admittedly despicable Jehu, to group you as my fellow convicts, my co-conspirators, in a sense? And you are right, for I am not your judge and neither do I wish to be. Having said that, I now request of you to put down the book and discontinue reading. "Surely," you say to yourself, "He is mentally deranged, for what author in his right mind would encourage his readers to disperse, what writer does not thrive on the digestion of his words by an eager audience?" Here I must make a revelation to you: if my manuscript has indeed been found, then I have long since been dead; and I assure you that in whatever form my existence takes in the present, I have little desire for your intrigue or goodwill. OUR FATE FORETOLD IF BUT ONE OR TWO OF THE STRANDS WERE OMITTED THE RESULT WOULD BE A FEEBLE ROPE EASILY BROKEN AND WE WOULD LIVE BUT BY OUR OWN VICES IS OUR MORTALITY MADE MANIFEST BY OUR OWN WRONGS ARE WE WRONGED BY NOW YOU MAY BE BEGINNING TO FEEL THE IMPULSES OF INDIGNATION ARISING IN YOUR BREAST FOR WHO AM I THE ADMITTEDLY DESPICABLE JEW TO GROUP YOU AS MY FELLOW CONVICTS MY CO CONSPIRATORS IN A SENSE AND YOU ARE RIGHT FOR I AM NOT YOUR JUDGE AND NEITHER DO I WISH TO BE HAVING SAID THAT I NOW REQUEST OF YOU TO PUT DOWN THE BOOK AND DISCONTINUE READING SURELY YOU SAY TO YOURSELF HE IS MENTALLY DERANGED FOR WHAT AUTHOR IN HIS RIGHT MIND WOULD ENCOURAGE HIS READERS TO DISPERSE WHAT WRITER DOES NOT THRIVE ON THE DIGESTION OF HIS WORDS BY AN EAGER AUDIENCE HERE I MUST MAKE A REVELATION TO YOU IF MY MANUSCRIPT HAS INDEED BEEN FOUND THEN I HAVE LONG SINCE BEEN DEAD AND I ASSURE YOU THAT IN WHATEVER FORM MY EXISTENCE TAKES IN THE PRESENT I HAVE LITTLE DESIRE FOR YOUR INTRIGUE OR GOOD WILL
