tell me, SON,

how long HAS it been since your last CONFESSION?

i think YOU'D know that better than anyone...

what?

father,

forgive me, for i have SINNED.

because of my VANITY,

an INNOCENT old woman and an OLD ACQUAINTANCE are DEAD.

i've spent MANY YEARS lurking in the shadows,

and FOR WHAT?

i have never been HIDDEN just... RECLUSIVE.

in my SLUMBER, i haven't been able to see the FOREST...

for the TREES.

son, i don't think i'm following you...
