‘He doesn’t mean it, Mrs Hudson. It’s his blasted addiction.’

‘I know, Doctor, it’s as if a demon has possessed that brilliant mind of his.’

Voluble profanity could be heard from the bedroom where Holmes was secured to his bed, shrieking and hurling such foul epithets at my person that I care not to repeat.

‘He will get better. Lesser men than Sherlock Holmes have overcome their dependencies.’

‘Bless you, for being such a good friend to him, especially when he is like this.’

Truly this nastiness was easier to bear than when he was pleading me to give in.

.oOOo.

Please sign the guestbook
