      Note/s:
      • Epigraph: " 'And thou, ' – turning to the Mater Tenebrarum, she said – 'wicked sister, that tempest and hatest, do thou take him from her. See that thy sceptre lie heavy on his head. Suffer not woman and her tenderness to sit near him in his darkness. Banish the frailties of hope, wither the relenting of love, scorch the fountain of tears, curse him as only thou canst curse. So shall he be accomplished in the furnace, so shall he see the things that ought not be seen, sights that are abominable, and secrets that are unutterable,'"-Thomas De Quincey.
