Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. "I do not blame our old friend,” Jekyll wrote, "but I share h
is view that we must never meet. I mean from henceforth to lead a life of extreme seclusion; you must not be surprised, nor must you doubt my friendship, if my door is often shut even to you. You must suffer me to go my own dark way. ” Now, read the prediction. I predict that Utterson will refuse to abandon Jekyll completely and will continue to seek him out. Which line most confirms this prediction? “. . . it may be doubted if, from that day forth, Utterson desired the society of his surviving friend with the same eagerness.” “He thought of him kindly; but his thoughts were disquieted and fearful.” “He went to call indeed; but he was perhaps relieved to be denied admittance . . .” “Utterson became so used to the unvarying character of these reports, that he fell off little by little in the frequency of his visits.”
The answer is: “He went to call indeed; but he was perhaps relieved to be denied admittance . . .”
In this case Jekyll knows that he should follow a life of extreme seclusion, and accept Dr. Lanyon behavior, in the line “He went to call indeed; but he was perhaps relieved to be denied admittance . . .” We can see that even when Utterson understand he is not abandon Jekyll completely and will continue to seek him out.
