original:

The Book
by H. P. Lovecraft
Written circa 1934

My memories are very confused. There is even much doubt as to where they begin;
for at times I feel appalling vistas of years stretching behind me, while at
other times it seems as if the present moment were an isolated point in a grey,
formless infinity. I am not even certain how I am communicating this message.
While I know I am speaking, I have a vague impression that some strange and
perhaps terrible mediation will be needed to bear what I say to the points
where I wish to be heard. My identity, too, is bewilderingly cloudy. I seem to
have suffered a great shock - perhaps from some utterly monstrous outgrowth of
my cycles of unique, incredible experience.

These cycles of experience, of course, all stem from that worm-riddled book. I
remember when I found it - in a dimly lighted place near the black, oily river
where the mists always swirl. That place was very old, and the ceiling-high
shelves full of rotting volumes reached back endlessly through windowless inner
rooms and alcoves. There were, besides, great formless heaps of books on the
floor and in crude bins; and it was in one of these heaps that I found the
thing. I never learned its title, for the early pages were missing; but it fell
open toward the end and gave me a glimpse of something which sent my senses
reeling.

There was a formula - a sort of list of things to say and do - which I
recognized as something black and forbidden; something which I had read of
before in furtive paragraphs of mixed abhorrence and fascination penned by
those strange ancient delvers into the universe's guarded secrets whose
decaying texts I loved to absorb. It was a key - a guide - to certain gateways
and transitions of which mystics have dreamed and whispered since the race was
young, and which lead to freedoms and discoveries beyond the three dimensions
and realms of life and matter that we know. Not for centuries had any man
recalled its vital substance or known where to find it, but this book was very
old indeed. No printing-press, but the hand of some half-crazed monk, had
traced these ominous Latin phrases in uncials of awesome antiquity.

I remember how the old man leered and tittered, and made a curious sign with
his hand when I bore it away. He had refused to take pay for it, and only long
afterwards did I guess why. As I hurried home through those narrow, winding,
mist-cloaked waterfront streets I had a frightful impression of being
stealthily followed by softly padding feet. The centuried, tottering houses on
both sides seemed alive with a fresh and morbid malignity - as if some hitherto
closed channel of evil understanding had abruptly been opened. I felt that
those walls and over-hanging gables of mildewed brick and fungoid plaster and
timber - with eyelike, diamond-paned windows that leered - could hardly desist
from advancing and crushing me . . . yet I had read only the least fragment of
that blasphemous rune before closing the book and bringing it away.

I remember how I read the book at last - white-faced, and locked in the attic
room that I had long devoted to strange searchings. The great house was very
still, for I had not gone up till after midnight. I think I had a family then -
though the details are very uncertain - and I know there were many servants.
Just what the year was I cannot say; for since then I have known many ages and
dimensions, and have had all my notions of time dissolved and refashioned. It
was by the light of candles that I read - I recall the relentless dripping of
the wax - and there were chimes that came every now and then from distant
belfries. I seemed to keep track of those chimes with a peculiar intentness, as
if I feared to hear some very remote, intruding note among them.

Then came the first scratching and fumbling at the dormer window that looked
out high above the other roofs of the city. It came as I droned aloud the ninth
verse of that primal lay, and I knew amidst my shudders what it meant. For he
who passes the gateways always wins a shadow, and never again can he be alone.
I had evoked - and the book was indeed all I had suspected. That night I passed
the gateway to a vortex of twisted time and vision, and when morning found me
in the attic room I saw in the walls and shelves and fittings that which I had
never seen before.

Nor could I ever after see the world as I had known it. Mixed with the present
scene was always a little of the past and a little of the future, and every
once-familiar object loomed alien in the new perspective brought by my widened
sight. From then on I walked in a fantastic dream of unknown and half-known
shapes; and with each new gateway crossed, the less plainly could I recognise
the things of the narrow sphere to which I had so long been bound. What I saw
about me, none else saw; and I grew doubly silent and aloof lest I be thought
mad. Dogs had a fear of me, for they felt the outside shadow which never left
my side. But still I read more - in hidden, forgotten books and scrolls to
which my new vision led me - and pushed through fresh gateways of space and
being and life-patterns toward the core of the unknown cosmos.

I remember the night I made the five concentric circles of fire on the floor,
and stood in the innermost one chanting that monstrous litany the messenger
from Tartary had brought. The walls melted away, and I was swept by a black
wind through gulfs of fathomless grey with the needle-like pinnacles of unknown
mountains miles below me. After a while there was utter blackness, and then the
light of myriad stars forming strange, alien constellations. Finally I saw a
green-litten plain far below me, and discerned on it the twisted towers of a
city built in no fashion I had ever known or read or dreamed of. As I floated
closer to that city I saw a great square building of stone in an open space,
and felt a hideous fear clutching at me. I screamed and struggled, and after a
blankness was again in my attic room sprawled flat over the five phosphorescent
circles on the floor. In that night's wandering there was no more of
strangeness than in many a former night's wandering; but there was more of
terror because I knew I was closer to those outside gulfs and worlds than I had
ever been before. Thereafter I was more cautious with my incantations, for I
had no wish to be cut off from my body and from the earth in unknown abysses
whence I could never return...
