It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night.
Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved
the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never
given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it
was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture-
a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon
me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees-very gradually
-I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and
thus rid myself of the eye forever.
-"The Tell-Tale Heart,"
Edgar Allan Poe
