I am sure, quite sure, that I prayed over his remains the other day when they were taken from the ground at the place where the phonograph records were being buried.  His corpse had been reduced to a skeleton.  I recognized him not by the ugliness of his head, for all men are ugly when they have been dead a long time, but by the gold ring he wore.  Christine Daae had undoubtedly come and slipped it onto his finger before burying him, as she had promised. The skeleton lay near the little fountain, where the Angel of Music first held the unconscious Christine Daae in his trembling arms after taking her into the cellars of the Opera. -- Gaston Leroux, from The Phantom of the Opera Read more of this post Bonald | October 30, 2021 at 5:20 pm | Categories: Uncategorized | URL: https://wp.me/p2cZzM-7je Comment    See all comments    Like Unsubscribe to no longer receive posts from The Orthosphere.
