Read the excerpts from chapter one of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Excerpt 1:

Excerpt 2:
[Hyde] is not easy to describe. There is something wrong with his appearance; something displeasing, something down-right detestable. I never saw a man I so disliked, and yet I scarce know why.
