Quote #10
It was Sanford who closed the lid on Horace. Nobody else would have had the stomach for it. (29.18)
For biting Dermid, Horace is sentenced to be interred underground. This is a terrible punishment, since going without blood for however many months or years will physically destroy Horace, even though he won't die from it. Does the punishment fit the crime? Will Horace's suffering reform him? We'll have to wait and see.
