-
Later.
0.000 — 0.500
-
When the count left me, I went to my room.
2.780 — 5.080
-
I looked out of my window and I saw the count.
5.980 — 8.520
-
He was climbing out of his window.
8.880 — 10.600
-
Then he climbed down the cliff.
11.320 — 12.980
-
He wasn't climbing like a man.
14.060 — 15.660
-
He was climbing like an animal.
16.360 — 17.940
-
Then he disappeared into a gap in the cliff.
18.740 — 21.560
-
The 15th of May.
22.680 — 23.880
-
Tonight I saw the count go out of his window again.
24.920 — 27.700
-
Again, he climbed down the cliff like an animal.
27.700 — 30.900
-
I watched him go.
31.320 — 32.160
-
I picked up my lamp.
32.820 — 33.660
-
I went to look around the castle some more.
34.400 — 36.440
-
This time I went to new places, places that I know the count goes.
37.180 — 40.940
-
A lot of the doors were locked.
41.860 — 43.320
-
Then on one corridor I found a door which wasn't locked.
44.080 — 47.520
-
It was difficult to open, but I pushed it hard.
48.060 — 50.700
-
The room inside was very light.
51.440 — 53.280
-
There were no curtains at the window.
53.760 — 55.320
-
The moon lit the room brightly.
55.320 — 58.000
-
Now here I am in this room writing my diary.
58.700 — 62.100
-
I like this room more than my room.
63.000 — 65.000
-
It doesn't feel like a prison.
65.640 — 66.960
-
Later.
68.280 — 68.620
-
The morning of the 16th of May.
69.460 — 71.180
-
I finished writing my diary and put it in my pocket.
72.060 — 74.640
-
Then I felt sleepy.
75.360 — 77.020
-
I lay down on the sofa and went to sleep.
77.780 — 79.960
-
I had a horrible dream.
80.680 — 82.480
-
At least I hope it was all a dream.
82.480 — 85.600
-
It seemed so real to me.
86.500 — 88.200
-
I was in the room asleep.
89.240 — 91.020
-
There were three young women.
91.760 — 93.020
-
They came towards me.
93.680 — 95.100
-
Two of them were dark.
95.580 — 96.580
-
They looked very like the count.
96.980 — 98.500
-
They had red eyes and long sharp noses.
99.280 — 102.200
-
The third was blonde.
102.860 — 104.000
-
All three of them had very white teeth and very red lips.
104.960 — 108.760
-
I thought their lips were beautiful.
109.500 — 111.160
-
I wanted them to kiss me.
111.160 — 112.800
-
Then the blonde woman came towards me.
113.580 — 115.640
-
She came to kiss me.
116.080 — 117.340
-
She licked her lips.
117.700 — 118.820
-
She showed me her teeth.
119.560 — 120.620
-
She had teeth like the count.
121.500 — 123.360
-
Teeth like a dog.
123.900 — 124.860
-
I could hear her breathing near me.
125.720 — 127.700
-
I could feel her teeth on my neck.
128.160 — 130.220
-
I waited.
130.640 — 131.300
-
Then suddenly I heard the count.
131.980 — 134.180
-
He pulled the woman away.
134.660 — 135.760
-
His eyes were on fire.
136.160 — 137.700
-
He was very angry.
138.180 — 139.460
-
He shouted at the women.
139.460 — 141.180
-
"'Have that!'' he said.
141.980 — 143.760
-
He threw a bag on the floor.
144.620 — 145.960
-
Something or some one inside the bag cried.
146.400 — 150.480
-
I woke up in my own bed.
151.420 — 153.000
-
Maybe it was a dream.
154.140 — 155.360
-
Or maybe the count carried me here.
156.180 — 158.480
-
My clothes are in the wardrobe, but not in their usual place.
159.320 — 162.360
-
My watch has stopped.
163.080 — 164.240
-
I usually check it before bed.
164.780 — 166.340
-
There are other small things too, but my diary is still here.
166.340 — 171.040
-
It's still in my pocket.
171.320 — 172.480
-
So perhaps it's my imagination.
173.120 — 174.720
-
The 19th of May.
175.700 — 176.920
-
I went down to look at the room in daylight.
177.980 — 180.120
-
I want to know the truth.
180.960 — 182.500
-
The door was locked from the inside.
183.460 — 185.560
-
Now I don't think it was a dream.
186.720 — 188.780
-
I think the women wanted my blood.
189.260 — 191.360
-
I'm definitely in trouble.
192.520 — 194.000
-
Last night the count asked me to write three letters.
194.700 — 197.500
-
He told me to put different dates on them.
197.980 — 200.140
-
He told me what to write.
200.940 — 202.400
-
In one, I said that my work is nearly finished and that I'm coming home soon.
203.360 — 207.420
-
In the second, I said that I'm leaving tomorrow.
208.380 — 210.480
-
In the third letter, I said that I'm now at Bistritz.
211.500 — 215.080
-
I dated the letters June 12th, June 19th, and June 29th.
215.880 — 220.780
-
Now I know.
221.420 — 222.240
-
I must die before June 29th.
223.060 — 226.540
-
The 28th of May.
227.340 — 228.940
-
There's a chance of escape.
229.980 — 231.260
-
Some workers have come to the castle.
231.780 — 233.340
-
They're camping outside.
233.780 — 234.860
-
I must write some letters.
235.640 — 236.860
-
Perhaps the workmen will post them for me.
237.420 — 239.380
-
I wrote two letters.
240.340 — 241.320
-
One to Mr. Hawkins and one to Meena.
242.280 — 244.380
-
I wrote Meena's in shorthand.
245.000 — 247.140
-
I'm sure the count can't read shorthand.
247.760 — 250.020
-
Then I put them around some money.
250.740 — 252.680
-
I threw them to the workers.
253.160 — 254.620
-
One of the workers took off his hat.
255.400 — 257.260
-
He smiled.
257.980 — 258.520
-
Then about five minutes later, the count came in.
259.540 — 262.960
-
He was holding the letters.
263.700 — 265.120
-
They were open.
265.740 — 266.420
-
He looked at me.
267.280 — 268.160
-
He was angry.
268.800 — 269.900
-
Then he threw the letters into the fire.
270.720 — 273.060
-
He left the room and closed the door.
273.420 — 275.660
-
He locked the door behind him.
276.580 — 278.520
-
Now I'm a prisoner in my room, as well as in the castle.
279.350 — 282.660
-
I went to bed.
283.840 — 284.660
-
I was very tired.
285.620 — 286.780
-
The 31st of May.
288.020 — 289.480
-
This morning I looked in my bag for paper and envelopes.
290.800 — 294.540
-
They were missing.
295.180 — 295.920
-
I looked in my wardrobe and my traveling clothes weren't there.
296.960 — 300.240
-
My big coat is also missing.
301.120 — 302.800
-
All my useful things are missing.
303.940 — 305.880
-
All the things which I use for to me outside the castle.
305.880 — 309.280
-
What's going to happen to me?
310.360 — 312.020
-
The 17th of June.
313.080 — 314.560
-
Earlier today I was sitting on my bed.
315.900 — 318.060
-
I heard a sound of horses outside.
318.760 — 320.600
-
I looked out of my window.
321.200 — 322.340
-
There was a team of horses there.
323.020 — 324.680
-
They were pulling a cart.
325.280 — 326.380
-
There were a lot of long wooden boxes on the cart.
327.060 — 330.020
-
Two workers were taking the boxes off the cart.
330.820 — 333.580
-
The boxes looked like coffins.
334.460 — 336.520
-
Then the workers went away.
337.260 — 338.980
-
Later they came back with more boxes.
339.880 — 342.620
-
The 24th of June, before morning.
343.920 — 346.740
-
Last night the count left me early.
348.080 — 350.160
-
He went to his room and locked the door.
351.000 — 352.920
-
I went to the window.
353.620 — 354.720
-
I looked for him.
355.400 — 356.460
-
After about half an hour I saw the count.
357.340 — 359.880
-
He was wearing my traveling clothes.
360.420 — 362.780
-
He was carrying that horrible bag.
363.420 — 365.340
-
He wants people to see me in the town.
366.600 — 368.640
-
He wants people to see me posting letters.
369.120 — 371.340
-
He wants people to see me doing bad things.
372.600 — 375.280
-
Everyone is going to think I am bad.
375.760 — 377.760
-
Later I woke up.
379.120 — 380.540
-
I heard wolves howling.
381.380 — 382.720
-
I heard the count in his room.
383.600 — 385.120
-
I also heard someone crying in his room.
385.560 — 388.140
-
Was it a child?
388.860 — 390.220
-
Then I looked outside.
391.080 — 392.600
-
There was a woman there.
393.000 — 393.980
-
She saw me at the window.
394.880 — 396.220
-
Give me my child.
396.840 — 398.740
-
You monster.
399.320 — 400.280
-
Give me my child.
401.060 — 402.200
-
She screamed.
402.860 — 403.760
-
She was crying.
404.620 — 405.600
-
The count called out of his window.
406.760 — 408.460
-
Suddenly hundreds of wolves appeared.
409.880 — 412.260
-
The woman screamed again.
413.420 — 415.040
-
The wolves licked their lips.
415.360 — 416.940
-
Then they attacked her.
417.550 — 419.460
-
Now she was dead.
420.480 — 422.000
-
Like her child.
423.080 — 424.220
-
The 25th of June.
425.500 — 426.880
-
I never see the count during the day.
428.240 — 430.020
-
I always see him at night.
430.560 — 432.120
-
Why is he always awake at night?
433.040 — 435.100
-
Perhaps he sleeps during the day.
436.100 — 437.900
-
I need to find some keys to the castle.
439.100 — 441.440
-
Perhaps I can climb the cliffs like the count.
441.860 — 444.280
-
Perhaps I can climb into his room.
444.280 — 446.540
-
I'm going to try today.
447.340 — 448.680
-
Same day later.
450.100 — 451.580
-
I'm back in my room.
453.140 — 454.220
-
I did it.
454.900 — 455.500
-
I climbed into the count's room.
455.820 — 457.320
-
It was empty.
458.320 — 459.180
-
I looked for the keys.
459.980 — 461.020
-
The keys to the castle and to the count's room.
461.320 — 463.740
-
I didn't find them.
464.480 — 465.600
-
Behind a door there were some stairs.
466.880 — 468.860
-
I went down the stairs.
469.660 — 471.260
-
They were dark.
472.200 — 472.820
-
They went outside.
473.460 — 474.520
-
They went to a graveyard.
475.060 — 476.140
-
It was near an old chapel.
477.340 — 479.440
-
In the graveyard there were a lot of the wooden boxes.
480.720 — 483.780
-
The same wooden boxes from the cart.
484.220 — 486.620
-
There were 50 of them.
487.660 — 489.140
-
All of them were full of earth.
489.960 — 491.960
-
I looked inside the boxes.
492.860 — 494.300
-
In one of them I saw the count.
495.460 — 498.480
-
Was he dead?
499.000 — 500.220
-
Was he asleep?
500.640 — 501.380
-
It was impossible to say.
502.180 — 503.620
-
His eyes were open, but he didn't look dead.
504.320 — 506.920
-
His face wasn't cold.
507.520 — 508.720
-
It was warm.
509.200 — 509.920
-
His face was pale, but it was always pale.
510.920 — 514.140
-
His lips were very red.
515.260 — 517.220
-
I still didn't know.
518.160 — 519.420
-
Was he dead or was he asleep?
520.060 — 522.380
-
It was horrible.
523.720 — 524.680
-
I ran back to the count's room.
525.640 — 527.180
-
I climbed back to my room.
527.600 — 529.400
-
I was very frightened.
529.940 — 531.460
-
The 29th of June.
532.860 — 534.480
-
The 29th of June, the same date as my third letter.
535.840 — 539.600
-
The last of the three letters the count told me to write.
539.900 — 542.580
-
The count is going to England tomorrow.
543.640 — 545.480
-
He says I can leave tomorrow too.
546.380 — 548.220
-
But why can't I go tonight?
549.020 — 550.360
-
I asked the count.
551.840 — 553.200
-
He opened the front door of the castle.
553.820 — 555.960
-
Of course you can go.
556.720 — 558.280
-
He said, go now.
558.820 — 560.480
-
I looked out of the door.
562.120 — 563.540
-
There were hundreds of wolves outside.
564.360 — 566.180
-
They were howling at me.
566.640 — 568.220
-
I couldn't leave.
569.240 — 570.040
-
Later I heard the count.
571.480 — 572.740
-
He was talking to the three women.
573.200 — 575.020
-
Tomorrow.
576.480 — 577.120
-
You will have everything tomorrow, my lovely.
578.420 — 581.840
-
He said.
582.440 — 583.300
-
So tomorrow is my last day.
584.660 — 587.000
-
I must escape.
587.800 — 588.740
-
I can't go tonight.
589.440 — 590.360
-
But I'll try to climb down the cliffs tomorrow.
591.140 — 593.160
-
The 30th of June, morning.
594.940 — 596.940
-
This morning there's a lot of noise.
598.260 — 600.320
-
The workers are putting the boxes onto carts.
600.780 — 602.860
-
There are a lot of horses.
603.520 — 604.800
-
The count is leaving.
605.740 — 606.820
-
My room is locked.
607.280 — 608.440
-
I'm a prisoner here.
609.160 — 610.120
-
I must try to climb the cliffs.
611.100 — 613.120
-
Meena, I hope I see you again.
614.680 — 616.980
-
If you find this diary, remember me.
617.900 — 620.900
-
I love you very much.
621.980 — 623.700
-
Let her from Miss Meena Murray to Miss Lucy Westonra, the ninth of May.
625.400 — 630.380
-
Dear Lucy, how are you?
631.720 — 633.940
-
I'm fine.
634.640 — 635.260
-
I'm studying a lot at the moment.
636.120 — 637.720
-
I'm learning to write in shorthand and I want to help Jonathan with his work.
638.500 — 642.600
-
I'm also learning to use a typewriter.
643.580 — 645.560
-
I'm now quite good.
646.000 — 646.860
-
When Jonathan and I are married, I can type his work for him.
647.920 — 651.340
-
I had a letter from him yesterday.
652.080 — 654.020
-
He's coming back soon.
654.480 — 655.740
-
He's writing a diary.
656.420 — 657.580
-
I'm going to write a diary too.
658.580 — 660.120
-
A lot of people say it's very good for you.
660.640 — 662.660
-
They say it helps your memory.
662.940 — 664.220
-
I'm really looking forward to seeing you.
665.060 — 667.420
-
I've never been to Whitby, but I love the sea and I love the sea air.
667.960 — 672.760
-
Tell me everything when you write to me.
673.500 — 675.720
-
I haven't had any news from you for a long time.
676.260 — 679.200
-
I've heard some stories about a tall handsome man.
679.960 — 683.340
-
Who is he?
684.180 — 684.800
-
Right soon, love Meena.
