The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Call of Cthulhu by H. P. Lovecraft: to shew why the sound the water against the vessel's sides became
so unendurable to me that I stopped my ears with cotton.
Johansen,
thank God, did not know quite all, even though he saw the city
and the Thing, but I shall never sleep calmly again when I think
of the horrors that lurk ceaselessly behind life in time and in
space, and of those unhallowed blasphemies from elder stars which
dream beneath the sea, known and favoured by a nightmare cult
ready and eager to loose them upon the world whenever another
earthquake shall heave their monstrous stone city again to the
sun and air.
