I made a pretense of eating breakfast, but I was not hungry. I feared that I was losing the power to choose when I wished to change myself into Hyde. Hyde was now making that decision.
Accordingly, it became necessary for me to double, then triple, the dosage of the drug in order to keep Hyde in check. And not knowing what side effects the drug might have, I knew that I was risking death. But I had no choice. I had to control Hyde. My "better" self was losing not only the power to return to its former self, but I realized that I, Jekyll, was losing the will to do so.
Soon I was faced with a dilemma. Which person did I want to be? The free, conscience-less Hyde? Or the "good," suppressed Doctor Jekyll? If I remained Jekyll forever, I could never more enjoy the depravities that Hyde gorged himself on. I would be, once more, a good man, but I would be a sterile shell of a man, constantly fighting the fires of temptation because I had tasted — and reveled in — sin, with no remorse or shame.
Rationally, I chose to remain Jekyll, and I said farewell, I thought, to the secret pleasures of the free soul, Edward Hyde. But my decision wasn't one of total commitment. I didn't do away with Hyde's apartment or his clothes — despite the fact that for two months, I led an exemplary life. Then, without warning one day, I was tortured with throbbing knots of lust and depravity.
Hyde was struggling to be released. And in a moment of weakness, I gave him his freedom. I drank the potion and once more, Edward Hyde was freed. He had been caged for so long that he came out roaring, and one of his first acts was to savagely murder Sir Danvers Carew.
When I was able to transform myself once more into Jekyll, I broke Hyde's key to the dissecting room and stamped it under my heel. I was finished with Hyde. Yet one day while I was in Regent's Park enjoying the sun, I began to feel my body change of its own will. I became Hyde. The only solution was to flee to a hotel and write a letter to Lanyon and one to Poole in order to obtain the ingredients for the potion so that I could become Jekyll once more.
I was able to accomplish this, but Lanyon of course was horrified to see Hyde change into the body of Jekyll before his eyes. Yet his horror did not match my own horror later, for Hyde increasingly began to take possession of me. If I slept or dozed, I awoke as Hyde and I was doomed. I was no longer able to control Hyde.
Today, Hyde still controls me. And he despises me. He fears the gallows and so he must dash back into Jekyll's body for safety, but he does so resentfully, and he takes out his raging hate by scribbling blasphemies in the margins of my books. He even destroyed the portrait of my father. But how can I kill Hyde? He loves his freedom so. I no longer have the old powders for the potion. Poole has been unable to obtain any that are effective.
Whatever I used originally must have had an unknown impurity that allowed me to release Hyde. Thus, I now must end my narrative — as Jekyll. Yet if while writing this, Hyde surfaces, he will tear it to pieces. Hopefully, I can finish and save it for you, Utterson, so that you can begin to understand my strange history.
Will Hyde die on the gallows? I no longer have the power to control or foresee either my own destiny or Hyde's. This is truly my hour of death! In Chapter 8, Henry Jekyll referred to his document which constitutes the entirety of Chapter 10 as "the confession of your unworthy and unhappy friend — Henry Jekyll," yet this final Chapter refers to the. In giving us his background, Jekyll constantly emphasizes the excellence of his background which commands the respect of all; his honorable conduct is exemplary to the world, when contrasted with the "blazon irregularities" which he hid with a morbid sense of shame.
Thus, early in Jekyll's life, he recognized a "profound duplicity of life so profound a double dealer. Note here that many critics are not content to interpret the novel as a conflict between good Jekyll and evil Hyde , but, instead, the novel points out, according to them, that evil represented by Hyde is only a small portion of man, a portion represented by Hyde's diminutive and dwarfish size.
Certainly, Dr. Jekyll implies this when he theorizes that "man will be ultimately known for a mere polity of multifarious, incongruous, and independent denizens" — that is, evil and good and many other qualities will ultimately be found to make up the entire man. However, Jekyll and his experiments can only prove at the present moment that man's existence has two parts — one good and one evil.
Jekyll's experiment, which Lanyon found so horrifying, was an attempt to separate the two components, and when he discovered the correct formula and drank it, Jekyll was approaching a robust fifty years of age; yet after his transformation into Edward Hyde, he felt younger, lighter, and more sensual.
He knew from the beginning that he was "tenfold more wicked [and] evil. As often noted in the above commentaries, after the transformation to Hyde, Jekyll "had lost in stature. Hyde, therefore, as the evil part of man, is less than the total man, but he is nevertheless an important part of the total man.
This is represented in the scene when Hyde looks in the mirror and sees himself as "natural and human": He was "conscious of no repugnance, rather a leap of welcome. And yet, from Chapter 1 onward, everyone who encounters Hyde is utterly horrified and repulsed by his pure evil.
